Chef Tips?

  1. While adding the spices, add in one bay leaf for added aroma and flavor! Discard it before serving the pasta.
  2. Make the sauce ahead of time to save time during the week! We love preparing the sauce on the weekend and using it during the week - it goes great in Bolognese, on pizzas as a base sauce and is even delicious as a dip with some nachos!
  3. If you have time, you can alternatively marinate the meat with all the spices and leave it for about an hour before cooking it in the recipe - it will add a new dimension to the flavors!
