[realfood] Bolognese Meat Sauce

Bolognese Meat Sauce

2 oz. Diced pancetta, finely chopped
1 Medium Spanish onion or yellow onion, finely chopped
1 Stalk celery, finely chopped
1 Carrot, finely chopped
4 Tbsp unsalted butter
11 oz Ground beef
4 oz Ground pork
4 oz Ground Italian sausage
1 freshly ground clove
Dash of freshly ground cinnamon
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
2 lb peeled and chopped tomatoes (or 1 28-oz can whole peeled tomatoes, packed in water)
1 cup whole milk
1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Make the soffritto. Combine pancetta, onion, celery, and carrot in sauté pan with butter and cook over medium heat until onion turns pale gold.

Add the beef, pork, sausage to the soffritto, and increase the heat to high; cook until browned. Sprinkle with the clove, cinnamon, and pepper.

Stir in tomatoes, bring to a simmer and reduce the heat to medium. Cook over medium heat for 15 minutes. If you are using whole canned tomatoes, break them up as you add them to the sauce.

Add milk and season with sea salt. Then turn down the heat and simmer for 2 and 1/2 hours. Stir at least every 20 minutes. Whenever the sauce gets too dry, just add 1/4 cup of water.
