So I like to make spaghetti bolognaise, to make the sauce I get mince, onions, garlic and the pasta sauce in a frying pan and cook it all up. So as I while was eating my spaghetti bolognaise; I was on facebook and watched a vine where this guy compared instagram and vine and used a "sloppy joe" analogy. WHile watching the video I was like "hm, that looks awfully similar to my "spaghetti sauce" " so I googled spaghetti sauce and the wikipedia link says: " sloppy joe is a sandwich originating in the United States of ground beef, onions, tomato sauce or ketchup and other seasonings" which is pretty much what I've made... I thought I've been making spaghetti bolognaise this whole time, but have I actually been making "sloppy joes"? btw. I'm not american so that's why it came as a surprise to me.
Sounds like it. My stomach turned at the thought of eating one of those sandwiches. You couldnt pay me to eat one of those anymore, after middle school I never had another. Btw OP, I like what you called it far more than calling it a "sloppy joe". American culture is fragmented and most of us have none.
all these weeks, I thought I was making quality italiano cuisine, but in reality I've been making a bastardized american form of it you've never heard of "bolognaise" though?
Sloppy joe is made with ketchup, you didn't use ketchup, much different. Normal red sauce isn't sugary like a sloppy joe.
I like to put sugar in my space to make it sweeter Sent from my GT-I9100 using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Well, a Sloppy Joe is actually a tomato and hamburger based sandwich served on a roll, seasoned with onions and assorted Italian herbs. A bolognese/bolognaise is a red tomato based sauce used for pasta, that generally should contain pancetta, or at least prosciutto or a bacon in order to be considered a bolognese, in addition to a usually hamburger-sausage blend, seasoned with onions, peppers and various herbs, and often finished with a parmersan blend. It was traditionally meant to be served with a broader fettuccine style pasta, called tagliatelle. Some modern cultures have simplified the sauce into a basic tomato-onion base which just includes hamburger. (The first recorded recipe, aside from pancetta, minced beef, onions and herbs, also contained carrot.) From the sounds of it, you've not been making sloppy joes or bolognese, but more a basic beef marinara sauce.
Yeah basically all red italian sauces are the exact same thing with slightly different combinations of meat/veggies/seasonings. And like somebody said a Sloppy Joe is a sandwich. Spaghetti Bolognese is a pasta dish.
I make my sloppy joes with ketchup sweet baby rays BBQ sauce an brown sugar an of course ground chuck
...I dare say the basic recipe for spaghetti bolognaise has been around a damn sight longer than 'sloppy joes'...
