Meat sauce spaghetti that everyone loves

Meat sauce spaghetti（ミートソーススパゲティ）

What kind of dish is Meat sauce spaghetti??

There are many variations of spaghetti, but the most famous spaghetti in Japan is meat sauce spaghetti. The combination of the taste of meat and the sourness of tomatoes is the best.

In Japan, we often use “Aibiki mince”. This is a mixture of minced pork and minced beef. Add celery if you have it.

When boiling spaghetti, add 1% salt to the amount of boiling water. The meat sauce has a strong taste, so I reduced the amount of salt.

☆For 100g of spaghetti, add 20g of salt to 2 liters of water. ☆For 400g of spaghetti, add 40g of salt to 4 liters of water.

This gives the noodles a salty flavor and makes them more compatible with the sauce. Adding salt does not affect the texture of the spaghetti, so if you are trying to reduce the amount of salt, you don’t need to add salt.　

I use 1.7mm spaghetti.

I’m Naoko. After graduating from a registered dietitian training school, I am working as a registered dietitian at a hospital in Japan. I love to cook and eat delicious food. I make recipes with calorie counting. The reason why all the ingredients are written as “g” is to accurately calculate calories. I am especially good at cooking with pressure cookers and ovens. I would like to introduce the recipe to foreigners who are interested in Japanese food. So I started writing Japanese home cooking recipes on my blog in English. 大学卒業後、管理栄養士として病院で勤務しています。レシピはカロリー計算を出来るだけ正確に行いたいので“g”で表記しています。日本の家庭料理のレシピを英語で紹介しています。圧力鍋とオーブンを使う料理が得意です。日本食・和食に興味を持ってもらえたら嬉しいです。よろしくお願いします(*ˊᵕˋ)♡‧₊
