What distinguishes a good bolognese from a really good one is usually time: time to build flavour, reduce and add layers. The Pepper Quest Ragù Blend is made to shorten that distance without compromising, with ingredients that actually do the job.
The core is two things. First, a deeply concentrated tomato powder with the darker, broth-dense side of tomato, which creates the feeling of long cooking time right from the start. Second, Zather, The Pepper Quest's wild-harvested herb blend from the Euphrates region, with oregano, thyme and a warm, complex base note that ties the whole together. To that come black pepper, sweet paprika, coriander seeds, rosemary, nutmeg, fennel seeds, cinnamon and bay leaf.
Add the blend early together with tomato paste and let it sizzle in the pan before the meat goes in, so the flavours bloom properly. For a slower ragù: let it simmer and deepen at its own pace. One sachet of 18 g is enough for 500 g of minced or stewing meat. Suitable for bolognese, lasagne, meat sauce and stew-based dishes with beef, pork or lamb.
