Method
- Long, slow simmering of meat and herbs produces the base for this incomparable sauce.
- Season roast with salt; dredge with flour.
- In Dutch oven brown slowly on all sides in hot olive oil.
- Add hot water; cover and cook slowly 3 hours or until meat almost falls apart.
- Tear into small pieces with fork.
- Add remaining ingredients except spaghetti and cheese.
- Cover tightly and simmer 2 hours longer, stirring occasionally.
- Remove cover and continue cooking until sauce thickens to desired consistency.
- Cook spaghetti following directions on package, allowing 1 pound for 4 servings.
- Ladle sauce over spaghetti.
- Top with cheese.
- Makes about 3 1/2 quarts sauce, enough for 4 pounds spaghetti.
- NOTE: Since you may not need such a large quantity of spaghetti, freeze extra sauce in half-pint, pint or quart freezer jars and use as needed.
- I prefer to use rump roast, but chuck or round is acceptable.
