Bolognese in the test: The sauces are really that good!
Oberösterreich, Österreich - The Chamber of Labor in Upper Austria has just carried out a comprehensive test by Bolognese-Saucen from the supermarket, which definitely causes a stir. Over 16 finished products were checked according to their ingredients and quality, with a clear winner standing out: the Alce Nero Bio-Ragù Alla Bolognese, which is sold for a proud 19.95 euros per kilogram, achieved remarkable 85 out of 100 points. In contrast, the bottom of the test series, which only cost 3.55 euros per kilogram and a modest 22 points section. This price difference clearly indicates a qualitative gap, as well as
The review showed that engineering sauces are often far from the traditional recipe. Each variant tested avoided the pancetta mandatory in the original Italian version and instead used garlic and other spice mixtures that do not occur in the authentic recipe. The original only provides onions, carrots, celery as well as high -quality olive oil and optional broth or milk. These deviations were considered creative freedom by the testers, while the use of cheaper rapeseed oil instead of olive oil and the use of thickening agents and aromas resulted in significant points. The inferior quality was also expressed by the meat content, which only varied between 14 and 29 percent. In many glasses, only beef or mixed fasced were found, while some products also contained meat from different EU countries, as orf.at reported.
The price-performance scissors
The large price differences are not only reflected in the quality, but also in the origin of the main ingredients. While some manufacturers rely on Austrian and Italian quality, other meat from different EU countries use, and in extreme cases, the animal can come from all 27 Member States. The tomatoes mainly come from Italy, but also from Spain or Portugal. This result shows that when buying Bolognese sauces, not only the price, but above all the quality is crucial to ensure an authentic taste experience.
