Ragù di prosciutto crudo

Ragù di prosciutto crudo is a traditional meat-based sauce originating from Italy. It's usually made with a combination of prosciutto crudo, onions, tomato purée, white wine, and extra-virgin olive oil. This simple ragù is made by frying the onions in olive oil, and when it becomes golden, the chopped prosciutto crudo is added to the pan, stirred, and browned for a few minutes. The ingredients are deglazed with white wine, and when the alcohol evaporates, tomato purée is added to the mixture. The ragù is covered and simmered over low heat. It's important not to overcook the ragù because the prosciutto is already very tasty and salty. If desired, celery, carrots, bay leaves, rosemary, and meat stock can be added to the ragù to further enrich the flavors. It's recommended to serve ragù di prosciutto crudo with pasta such as tagliatelle or pappardelle.
