Ragù Genovese
Genovese sauce, known in Italian as sugo alla genovese or "la Genovese", is a slow-cooked onion and meat sauce associated with the city of Naples, in the Campania region of Italy. It is typically served with ziti, rigatoni or paccheri pasta and sprinkled with grated cheese. Genovese may be prepared with inexpensive cuts of beef, pork, veal or sausage, but typically share and emphasize slow-cooked onions. Recipes may cite the ramata di Montoro, a yellow onion with copper-colored skin. Despite its name, which means 'in the style of Genoa', Genovese sauce is a principal pasta sauce of Naples and an important part of its culinary history, having been introduced to the city in the 15th or 16th centuries. The sauce may have been brought by Genovese immigrants or merchants, at a time when Genoa and Naples were two of Italy's most important ports. It could also be referring to its inventor's name, since Genovese is a widespread surname in Campania.
