That's why if you ask someone in Bologna how much tomato to add to your Bolognese they will chase you out of town with a kitchen knife.

Which is weird, considering the dish was only invented in the 19th century, so tomatoes were absolutely available.

Italian cuisine in general has way less tradition that people think.

That's documented serving. You don't seriously believe that a slow stew on the basis of meat, wine and misofritto only appeared in the 19th century?

No, but at what point would you start calling it bolognese then? It's every meat/wine stew from Bologna bolognese?

When do you call something a continent? Just vibes, I guess. All I am saying is that the dish has a much longer history than 200 years.

Oh hey is that like the Irish stew with Potaytoes instead of Potahtoes?
