Ragù is the first launch in our new One Pot Wonder series. Blends created to make everyday cooking taste fuller, deeper and more put together, without making it more complicated.

This one was made for the dishes so many of us come back to again and again: bolognese, köttfärssås, lasagne and slow-cooked ragù.

At the heart of the blend are two ingredients we especially love. A deeply savoury tomato powder that brings the impression of long simmering, and Zather, adding herbal warmth, lift and a quietly complex backbone. Together, they make a sauce feel more complete, more rounded and more deeply flavoured from the start.

1 pack (16 g) is enough for 1 kg minced meat or stew meat.

For a quick weekday sauce, add the blend early together with tomato paste and let it bloom in the pan before adding the meat. For a slower ragù, let it simmer gently and deepen over time.

Recipe:

We’ve shared a quick family pasta recipe on the Journal made with Ragù Blend for the evenings when dinner needs to come together fast, but still taste like something more.

Read the recipe on the blog.

One small bag. One pot. A lot more flavour.

Ingredients
Tomato powder, Zhater, black pepper, sweet paprika, coriander seeds, salt, rosemary, nutmeg, fennel seeds, cinnamon, bay leaf

    Ragù was built around a very simple idea: how do we make one of the most common family dishes taste better in the easiest possible way?

    The answer began with tomato powder. Not fresh tomato brightness, but the darker, denser side of tomato — savoury, brothy, slightly sweet and full of body. It gives minced meat sauces and ragùs that slow-cooked feeling without needing hours on the stove.

    Then came Zhater. Herbal, layered and beautifully useful. It opens with oregano, moves into wild thyme, and lingers with a warm, almost resinous depth that makes the whole blend feel settled and complete.

    To this we added black pepper, sweet paprika, coriander seed, salt, rosemary, nutmeg, fennel seed, cinnamon and bay leaf.

    No fillers. No unnecessary extras. Just spices chosen to support tomato, meat and time.

    Think of Ragù as a shortcut to depth.

    It is made for the evenings when dinner needs to work — when you want something comforting, rich and satisfying, but do not have hours to build it from scratch. Add it to minced meat, tomato paste and onion for a fast family pasta, or let it simmer longer with beef chunks for a slower ragù.

    Ways to use it:
    Stir into bolognese or köttfärssås
    Use in lasagne filling
    Add to slow-cooked ragù
    Build a quick one-pan pasta sauce
    Use with beef mince, pork mince or stew meat
    Taste collaborators:

    Butter, cream, onion, garlic, tomato paste, parmesan, pasta water, olive oil, red wine, beans, lentils, mushrooms

    Dosage:

    1 pack (16 g) is enough for 1 kg minced meat or stew meat.

    For a quick weekday sauce, add the blend early together with tomato paste and let it bloom in the pan before adding the meat.
    For a slower ragù, let it simmer gently and deepen over time.
