Instructions:

For the béchamel sauce, make a light roux of butter and flour, deglaze with a little cold water while stirring with a sauce whisk, and top up with milk to make a smooth creamy sauce without lumps. Season with salt and freshly grated nutmeg and cook for another 20 minutes.

Béchamel sauce like “Sugo alla bolognese” must be ready before sliding the wide ribbon noodles in small portions into plenty of boiling salted water, boiling for 5-6 minutes, fishing them out gently with a slotted spoon and spreading them out on a clean kitchen towel to dry. The procedure takes a bit of time, but is necessary to prevent the unwieldy wide ribbons from sticking together.

In a buttered ovenproof dish, start with a layer of tagliatelle, then add a ladle of “Sugo alla bolognese”, grated béchamel sauce, Parmesan cheese, grated cheese, another layer of tagliatelle and so on until all the ingredients are used up.

The last layer should be bechamel sauce, richly sprinkled with grated cheese and studded with butter flakes.

The mold is placed in the heated stove and baked for a good half hour until golden brown.
