Instructions
2 cans crushed tomatoes and their juice, 1 can tomato sauce, 1 cup
beef or chicken stock or broth, 2 tsp sugar, 1/2 cup heavy cream, 2
tbsp unsalted butter, 3 tbsp chopped fresh parsley leaves, 1 pound
spaghetti, 1 cup freshly grated parmesan
In a large pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the bacon
and cook, stirring, until browned and the fat is rendered, 4 to 5
minutes. Add the onions, carrots and celery and cook, stirring, until
soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic, salt, pepper, bay leaves, thyme,
oregano, cinnamon, and nutmeg and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds.
Add the beef and sausages, and cook, stirring, until no longer pink,
about 5 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, for 1 to 2
minutes. Add the wine and cook, stirring, to deglaze the pan and
remove any browned bits sticking to the bottom of the pan, and
until half of the liquid is evaporated, about 2 minutes.
Add the tomatoes and their juices, the tomato sauce, beef broth,
and sugar and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and
simmer, stirring occasionally, to keep the sauce from sticking to the
bottom of the pan, until the sauce is thickened and flavorful, about
1 1/2 hours. Add the cream, butter, and parsley, stir well, and
simmer for 2 minutes. Discard the bay leaves and adjust the
seasoning, to taste. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm
until ready to serve.
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta
and return the water to a low boil. Cook, stirring occasionally to
prevent the noodles from sticking, until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes.
Drain in a colander.
Add the pasta to the sauce, tossing to coat. Add 1/2 cup of the
cheese and toss to blend. Divide among pasta bowls and serve with
the cheese passed tableside. (Alternatively, toss only the desired
portion of pasta with a bit of the sauce at a time in a serving bowl,
reserving the remainder for another meal.)
