Description
Freshly made tagliatelle with a slow-braised wild boar ragù from the Marche Apennine hills — the boar marinated in Rosso Piceno red wine with juniper, bay and rosemary, then braised until falling apart, shredded back into the deeply reduced wine sauce. Finished with a generous grating of Pecorino di Fossa for its mineral funk.

The Thread
—Broad pasta with wild boar ragù — the Tuscan version uses pappardelle; the Marche uses tagliatelle; both require the same long marinade and braise Tuscan
—Wild boar braised in red wine and served with pasta — the French Provençal version is essentially identical in technique French
—Wild boar goulash in red wine — different format (served with bread dumplings), same marinate-and-braise technique for aggressive wild game German
IV
Flavour Context
Gamey, winey, deeply savoury; juniper and bay give alpine resinousness; Pecorino di Fossa adds a funky mineral layer; the tagliatelle's egg richness smooths the rough game flavour — mountain pasta of serious character
