A hearty, slow cooked meat sauce to go over pasta. Plan ahead, it needs to simmer for hours.
Add the meat and break up into very small mince. No large chunks! Stir and brown until there is no pink meat. Add the nutmeg and salt, bay leaves, sage and white wine. Cook until the wine is well reduced, and alcohol has burned offw
Serve over cooked pasta. Grate parmigiana cheese over top.
Red wine may be used instead of white wine. Beef/veal ground meat and ground pork are traditionally used. Some versions do use skirt steak cut up finely in place of ground meat.
Every nonna has their own version!
