Method

Step 1

In a large dutch oven over medium-high heat, heat oil. Add onion, carrot, celery, and cook until soft, about 7 minutes.

Step 2

Stir in beef and garlic, breaking up meat with the back of a spoon. Cook until no longer pink and is lightly seared, about 8 minutes.

Step 3

Add white wine and bring mixture to a simmer. Cook until wine is mostly reduced. Stir in the tomatoes, tomato paste, broth, and bay leaf, then reduce heat and simmer for 1 hour, allowing flavours to mix.

Step 4

Discard bay leaf, then gradually stir in milk. Cover with a lid slightly ajar and simmer, stirring occasionally, until milk is fully incorporated, about 45 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 5

Cook Barilla Rigatoni pasta until al dente according to package directions, then drain.

Step 6

Toss Barilla Rigatoni pasta with Bolognese sauce and serve.
