For a richer flavor, consider using a combination of ground beef and ground pork. Adding a splash of dry red wine during the initial sautéing of the vegetables can enhance the depth of flavor. If you prefer a smoother sauce, use an immersion blender to partially blend the sauce before adding the final milk and Parmesan. This Bolognese sauce freezes well. Allow it to cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container and freezing for up to 3 months.
