    “Bolognese has veal, pork, beef, prosciutto, and marrow.”
    Well, actually not at all.

    Food is what you make it. Ostracizing someone for making a (traditional) dish with slight modifications makes you look small. This dish looks delicious and I would absolutely pay top dollar for it. Maybe this dish doesn’t belong in the Bible for Italian food, but they made it for themselves and it looks great.

    To a lot of people in this sub: Where do you think these proper/correct dishes came from?! It was poor people from a time long ago doing the best they could with the ingredients they had. This subreddit is absurd. Food evolves every day. New flavors, new ideas, new techniques… Don’t be an asshole. OP worked hard on this pasta (which it is) and they did an incredible job. If you don’t like it then don’t comment. Be miserable in private and eat your perfect “classic” pasta. It’s more taxing on your fingers to reply than to just scroll to the next thing that will upset you.

    OP – That dish looks amazing and if you took that photo yourself I would recommend you working a side gig for food photography. Cheers.

    I slept while a bunch of people argued about this it looks like. So to clear a few things up: not AI, I have other pics from the same photoshoot. Yes it’s bolognese. Bolognese is meat, tomato, mirepoix, and other shit slow simmered till it’s tender and good. If I only sold the “original, authentic” versions of Italian peasant dishes, I wouldn’t sell anything. Food and recipes evolve. At the end of the day, if it tastes good, who gives a fuck.
