Yield Makes about 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/4 cups finely chopped onion (about 1 large onion)
3/4 cup finely chopped celery (about 1 1/4 stalks)
3/4 cup finely chopped carrot (about 1 large carrot)
1 1/4 pounds ground chuck
10 ounces ground pork
2 1/4 teaspoons coarse salt
2 1/2 cups milk
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 1/4 cups dry white wine
2 1/4 cups homemade or low-sodium canned chicken stock
2 1/2 cups canned diced plum tomatoes, with juice
Freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Heat butter and oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottom 6-quart pot over medium heat until butter is melted. Add onion, celery, and carrot; cook, stirring frequently, until vegetables are soft and light golden brown, 8 to 11 minutes.
  • Add ground chuck and pork to pot; stir, breaking up meat with a fork. Add salt, and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until meat is cooked through but not browned, about 5 minutes more.
  • Gradually add milk; bring mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low. Add nutmeg to taste, and gently simmer until milk has completely evaporated, about 20 minutes. (Any remaining liquid will be yellowish and clear.)
  • Add wine; simmer until liquid is reduced by half, about 15 minutes. Stir in stock; simmer until liquid is reduced by half, about 30 minutes. Add tomatoes and juice; simmer, stirring occasionally, until fat has risen to the top and sauce is thick and meaty, 60 to 70 minutes. Season with pepper. Let sauce cool slightly.

I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out great. The key is to use good quality ingredients and let the sauce simmer for a long time.
