Do you ever feel lazy? Sometimes the raw, breezy Springtime weather makes us feel restless and distracted, and doing something as simple as planning a meal becomes either boring or just too much trouble. The problem is, being outside gardening or hiking really works up an appetite, one that might call for a hearty supper. Don?t worry, we have you covered. All you have to do is keep a conatiner of Sugo di Carne in your fridge or freezer. This Tuscan style meat sauce is made of pork, beef, onion, carrots, celery and vin santo. It is very aromatic and extremely versatile . Add a can of Italian tomatoes (we like the San Marzano variety), simmer briefly, and pour over pasta or polenta. Top with some grated Parmesan or Pecorino. Butcher Taylor?s lovely and talented wife Toponia chops, spices and simmers so you don?t have to! Toponia, who handles all of the administrative duties at The Fatted Calf, is also a chef and in the kitchen every week producing all of the product for the markets alongside Taylor. To quote Taylor : ?My wife is the best cook I know, and this one of the best things she makes?. Need we say more?
