This is a very tasty Bolognese Sauce. I did have to make a substitution for the celery root because my local grocer did not have it in stock. Perhaps it would have added another layer of depth to the flavor that would have taken it over the top. I loved the richness of flavor the wine brought to the dish, normally bolognese is heavier on the tomato flavor than this one, but I found this to be a wonderful variation. I also only had 1.5 lbs of ground beef on hand and thought that was plenty for the sauce. -
This was very tasty, but not quite what I expected. I am a Bolognese sauce lover, and this was not as creamy or rich as I am used to. However, the flavors were nice, although it is very heavy on the ground beef. Thanks for sharing this. Made for Please Review My Recipe Tag Game.
