Duane B. on 2025-01-20 (5 stars): This Ragus is fantastic! I have made it several times over the past few months. I make it without changing a thing. My wife absolutely loves it (we also talked about mushrooms when we first started dating?We try to space it out when we make it to keep it as a special recipe. Also, I made the Parmesan Polenta which is the perfect base as the parmesan seems to marry the two 🤌 Thank you and I can't wait to discover more of your recipes!
