Pappardelle Bolognese

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Pappardelle Bolognese – Homemade Bolognese is tossed with a wide-noodle pasta called Pappardelle. it’s the most comforting combination, that is perfect for the cool weather months.

As the weather turns cooler, the food gets more comforting, am I right? I just love hearty soups, slow cooked meats, and pasta dishes during the fall and winter months to bring me comfort as I post up indoors to escape the cold.

Today’s recipe is a new pasta dish to add to your list for the upcoming season – Pappardelle Bolognese. This is just an elevated version of spaghetti and meat sauce. The sauce is super rich and meaty, with just a hint of tomato flavor (no chunks of tomato here!) and the pasta pivots away from spaghetti to a wide-noodle called Pappardelle. It’s on of my favorite noodles of all time and it pairs best with Bolognese.

Not tomato sauce

This meaty sauce – called Bolognese – is a slow-cooked sauce that has vegetables, tomato paste, and beef. The biggest misconception about this sauce is that it has a marinara base. Not the case. It does have a tomato base but it comes from a concentrated tomato paste rather than chunky marinara sauce.

Making the Bolognese

The sauce starts with cooking the beef in large chunks until it’s mostly brown and then remove the beef from the pot. We don’t want to break the beef up into tiny pieces yet. The bigger chunks hold onto their flavor and moisture a little longer so that they release into the sauce, once we add them back later.

The finely diced pancetta then gets added to the empty pot and cooked until crispy. The finely diced veggies are added to cook for about 8 minutes so they start to stick to the pan. This means they has lost most of their moisture, which is what we want.

White wine is added to deglaze the pan. The beef is added back to the pot and broken down into little pieces. It then cooks for a few minutes so the wine can evaporate. Then, the tomato paste, bay leaf, and nutmeg are added and pushed into the beef. Finally, the chicken broth and milk are added and the sauce is left to simmer for a few hours, uncovered.

Finishing off the dish

Once the sauce has cooked for a few hours and turned into a thick consistency, it’s time to make the pasta. A large pot of salted water is brought to a boil. The dry pasta is added to cook until just before al dente. The pasta is then transferred to the sauce, along with 1 cup of pasta water and 1/2 cup of freshly grated Parmesan. It’s left to simmer for 2 more minutes and then seasoned to taste. It’s served immediately.

Tips & Tricks

  1. Finely diced veggies. It’s important for the veggies to be diced super small so that they create a cohesive sauce. If you have large chunks in the sauce, it will take away from the flavor your trying to create.
  2. Wide noodles make a difference. I love Pappardelle noodles but had a hard time finding them in stores. You can easily make them at home without a pasta maker – it’s super simple! But if you’d like to buy dry pasta, you can find on Amazon, like I did.
  3. Low heat. Do not let the heat get too high when slow cooking the sauce. In fact, you want the heat at the lowest setting. This ensures the sauce cooks slowly over 2 hours.

Pappardelle Bolognese

Prep Time20 minutes mins
Cook Time3 hours hrs
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 medium white onion peeled
  • 1 medium carrot peeled
  • 1 stalk celery
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 pound ground chuck 20% fat
  • 3 ounces panchetta finely diced
  • 1 cup Chardonnay
  • ⅓ cup tomato paste
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 pinch ground nutmeg
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 pound pappardelle pasta
  • ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • Cut onion, carrot, and celery in large chunks. Place into a food processor and pule until finely chopped. Set aside.
  • Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Once hot, add ground chuck to pan in chunks and a pinch of salt. Stir to cook, without breaking apart the beef, until the beef is browned, but not crispy, about 6 minutes. It's okay if the beef is still pink inside. It will finish cooking later. Drain beef and set aside. Wipe the inside of the Dutch oven to remove excess fat.
  • Cook pancetta in pot over medium heat (no need to add extra oil because the pancetta fat will render as it cooks), until the pancetta starts to turn crispy but doesn't burn, about 8 minutes. Add onion-celery-carrot mixture to the pan and cook until the mixture starts to stick to the pan, about 8 minutes.
  • Use wine to deglaze the pan and release browned pieces from the bottom of the pan. Add the beef and start breaking apart the beef into tiny pieces, using a wooden spoon. Cook until the wine is almost evaporated, about 12 minutes.
  • Add in tomato paste, bay leaf, and nutmeg. Cook for 5 minutes, making sure to press the paste into the beef and stir around. Pour in chicken broth and milk. Stir together. Reduce heat to the lowest setting on your smallest burner. You want it to be barely simmering.
  • Leave uncovered to cook for 2-2½ hours, or until a thick consitency in the sauce is reached. if this happens before 2 hours, add ½ cup more chicken broth so that sauce keeps cooking and developing it's flavor. Discard bay leaf when complete and keep heat on.
  • Set a large pot of salted water to boil and cook paste a little before al dente (2 minutes less than package instructions). Using tongs, transfer the pasta to the sauce pot with about 1 cup of pasta water and ½ cup of freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Stir together and bring to a simmer. Cook for 2 minutes. Give it a taste and add salt, if needed. Serve immediately.

    This Pappardelle Bolognese breakdown is fantastic — it really captures what makes a true Bolognese special: slow cooking, finely chopped aromatics, tomato paste instead of marinara, and that long, gentle simmer that turns simple ingredients into a rich, silky sauce. The step-by-step explanation of building flavor — browning beef in large chunks, crisping pancetta, reducing wine, then letting broth and milk transform eveything over a few hours — makes the recipe approachable even though it’s traditional and time-intensive. The added tips about dicing vegetables finely, using wide pappardelle to catch the sauce, and keeping the heat low are exactly the kind of practical insights home cooks love. This is also the type of recipe that would shine on the Magis TV App https://themagistvapp.com/: a slow-cooking, comfort-food dish that could be shown through a visually rich video tutorial with close-up shots of each stage, from deglazing the pan to tossing the fresh pasta in the finished sauce. Magis TV could turn this into a cozy, fall-season cooking episode — perfect for viewers who love hearty meals and want chef-style guidance right from their screen.

    This recipe is fall comfort in a bowl—I mean, wide pappardelle noodles smothered in that rich, slow-cooked Bolognese? Absolute dream! I love how the beef stays in chunks at first to deepen the flavor, and that tip about finely diced veggies really shows the thoughtfulness behind every step. The texture must be irresistibly silky with that Parmesan stir-in at the end. Can’t wait to cozy up with a bowl of this on a chilly evening. Thank you for such a savory, soul-warming dish!

    One of my favourite recipes, as an italian living in Italy I have to say we make it slightly differently. We use passata (tomato sauce, without anything added, not sure if you can find it where you live) on top of tomato paste. My sister is the queen of bolognese (or ragù, called both ways) it’s also incredible in lasagna 🙂

Can we talk about how guava and cream cheese is TH Can we talk about how guava and cream cheese is THE most underrated flavor combination ever?! 

Growing up, guava was always around. My dad would spread it on toast with butter every morning, and I did the same. But it wasn't until I had guava with cream cheese at a Latin bakery in Florida that I truly appreciated this tropical fruit. 

The cream cheese perfectly balances the tangy guava jelly and makes everything ultra creamy. Wrapped in flaky puff pastry? KILLER.

I know this pastry braid looks super fancy and complicated, but here's the secret: IT'S SHOCKINGLY SIMPLE. When I first saw a pastry braid, I was so intimidated by how intricate it looked. It felt almost unattainable without tons of practice. But I'm here to tell you that is absolutely not the case!

Here's the whole process:
1️⃣ Roll out puff pastry and cut slits on the sides
2️⃣ Spread cream cheese and guava down the center
3️⃣ Overlap the side pieces to create the braid
4️⃣ Brush with egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar
5️⃣ Bake until deep golden brown

THAT'S IT! The braiding technique is so much easier than it looks, and the result is absolutely stunning.

Two critical tips:
-Keep it COLD before baking: Cold puff pastry = steam when it hits the hot oven = flaky layers! If the butter is too warm, it won't puff properly.
-Bake until DEEP golden brown: Not just golden, but DEEP golden. This ensures crispy, flaky pastry that's cooked all the way through. Nobody wants soggy pastry!

This is perfect for brunch, dessert, or honestly just because you want something that looks impressive but is secretly easy to make. You can also substitute any fruit preserves if you can't find guava!

Do you remember those Danish butter cookies that c Do you remember those Danish butter cookies that came in the fancy blue tin? The ones your mom would buy every Christmas and you'd go absolutely CRAZY for? 

Well, guess what? You can make them YOURSELF! And they're shockingly simple!

I'm talking about those perfectly crispy-on-the-outside, melt-in-your-mouth-on-the-inside shortbread cookies that are basically edible butter. And honestly? 

I don't think they should be reserved just for the holidays. These cookies deserve to be eaten ALL YEAR LONG!

Here's what makes them so special:
-The Recipe: Only FIVE ingredients—butter, flour, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. That's it! If you can cream butter and sugar together, you can make these.
-The Texture: They're like shortbread cookies but slightly softer, so when you bite into them, they literally melt in your mouth. It's pure butter heaven.
-The Secret: Use European-style butter! It has a higher fat content which makes these cookies extra creamy and flavorful. It's worth the upgrade, I promise!

Important tips:
Be VERY careful measuring your flour—too much and the dough will be impossible to pipe
Use a LARGE star tip (not a small one!) or you won't be able to squeeze the dough out
These actually taste BETTER after they cool! The crispiness is what makes them so good, so resist eating them warm (I know it's hard!)

These are perfect for coffee breaks, gift-giving, parties, or honestly just because you deserve a good cookie. You can make them in under an hour from start to finish!

After making approximately ONE MILLION pumpkin tre After making approximately ONE MILLION pumpkin treats recently, I was desperate for something with all those cozy fall vibes but maybe... a little less pumpkin? 

So I set my sights on something that doesn't get nearly enough love in the dessert world: SWEET POTATOES! 

And here's my controversial opinion: Sweet potato beats pumpkin ANY DAY OF THE WEEK. There, I said it! 

These Sweet Potato Cupcakes are super moist, perfectly spiced, and topped with the creamiest cinnamon cream cheese frosting. 

They taste similar to pumpkin cupcakes (so if you're a die-hard pumpkin lover, you can absolutely swap in pumpkin puree!), but here's why sweet potato wins:
✨ More starch = MORE moisture and density in the cupcake
✨ The flavor is 100x better (fight me on this!)
✨ That perfect balance between sweet and earthy

But what I'm MOST proud of is how the frosting and cake work together. You know how sometimes you get a cupcake with frosting that's way too sweet so you just eat the cake? Or killer frosting but blah cake so you only eat the frosting? NOT THIS CUPCAKE. 

The spiced cake needs a little sweetness to balance it out, and the tart cream cheese frosting is PERFECT. They're soulmates! 

Important tips:
-Don't undercook them or they'll sink in the center (but more frosting fixes everything!)
-Fill the liners 3/4 full—not all the way—to get exactly 12 cupcakes
-Use a 2M Wilton tip for that fancy frosting swirl (or just spread with a knife!)

Y'all, I need to talk about these Kentucky Derby C Y'all, I need to talk about these Kentucky Derby Cookie Bars because they might just be the most decadent thing I've ever created!

So here's the deal: I love taking traditional recipes and giving them a major upgrade. 

Traditional Derby Pie is delicious, but I wanted to make something even MORE special. And these bars? They're Derby Pie on steroids!

Here's what makes them absolutely incredible:
The Cookie Crust: Instead of regular pie crust, we're using a thick chocolate chip cookie base. Game. Changer.
The Filling: Loaded with pecans, chocolate chips, and a hint of bourbon that adds this rich, complex flavor. The filling is more dense and cakey than traditional Derby Pie, which gives you the perfect chewy texture.
The Bourbon Caramel: This homemade bourbon caramel sauce is what takes these bars over the top. It's sweet, buttery, and has that gorgeous bourbon depth. And yes, the alcohol cooks out, so it's safe for everyone (even made these while I was pregnant!)!

Important tips:
Don't chop your pecans too finely—leave nice chunks for better texture
If the bars start browning too quickly, just cover them with foil while the center finishes baking
Don't over-thicken the caramel sauce on the stove—it will thicken as it cools!

These bars are perfect for Derby Day (obviously!), but honestly, they're amazing for any summer gathering, BBQ, or potluck.

Y'all, I just made the BEST hot chocolate of my li Y'all, I just made the BEST hot chocolate of my life and I need you to try it immediately!

Growing up, I only knew hot chocolate from those packets where you just add hot water. I had NO idea you could make it from scratch so easily! 

All it takes is hot milk, cocoa powder, chocolate chips, and the secret ingredient... PEANUT BUTTER!

I've always been obsessed with the peanut butter and chocolate combo (if you've been following me, you know this is true!), but for some reason, it never occurred to me to add it to hot chocolate until recently. And now I'm officially never going back to regular hot chocolate!

What makes this recipe so special? The peanut butter adds this incredible creaminess and depth of flavor without overpowering the chocolate. 

Plus, you don't need to add any extra sugar because the chocolate chips provide all the sweetness you need. 

Top it with marshmallows and maybe a drizzle of chocolate and peanut butter sauce, and you've got pure heaven in a mug.

Important tips:
-Be careful not to overheat the chocolate and peanut butter—too much heat will cause the chocolate to harden
-Add the milk SLOWLY to the chocolate mixture and whisk constantly. It makes blending so much easier!
-This recipe makes 4 cups, and leftovers keep for 5 days in the fridge!

This is the ultimate cozy drink for cold winter nights, holiday gatherings, or honestly any time you need a little comfort. It's ready in less than 10 minutes!
