Bolognese with wine

Cookinero 6 May 2025

"Bolognese" with wine and minced meat. The classic recipe uses dry white wine. But the most famous chefs have been making this dish with red wine for decades. Choose the wine to your taste, otherwise the recipe will be similar. Cabernet or Merlot, as well as other varieties of dry red wines, are suitable for cooking. The drink should be a rich burgundy color, but not very dark. Do not use cloudy wines. Most likely, they were stored incorrectly or were made in violation of technology.
