What defines this chef’s technique

  • Openly non-traditional, adding vegetables like zucchini or broccoli to classic pastas
  • For his traditional bolognese, uses a beef-and-pork mix with pancetta, deglazes with white wine, and simmers 2 to 5 hours in chicken stock
  • Finishes with milk and pairs the sauce with homemade egg tagliatelle
  • Links back to his own earlier non-traditional videos, contrasting them with the traditional version
