Cinghiale
Any of you have any Italian recipes for pasta sauce made from wild boar meat (cinghiale in Italian, apparently)?

Thanks in advance...

Yes cinghiale is wild boar . Probably the best use would be in bolognese sauce which is great with venison or boar. Grind the meat, brown in hot oil ,add chopped onion, celery, carrot, mushroom and tomato . Simmer for 45-60 minutes. Bolognese sauce really deserves it's place as a classic pasta sauce.

I do a lot of this, had it for dinner last night!

Put some olive oil into a pan on low heat.
add chopped fresh garlic, chili(if desired) & fennel seeds.
Ad minced meat, brown lightly, before it's totally cooked, add a splash of a good dry white wine.

Add tomato, tinned or fresh, a bit of water, then simmer together till sauce is of the desired consistency.

When you take the cooked pasta from the water, take it out a litle prematurely, the pass it in the pan with the sauce for the final stages of cooking.

This get the sauce to stick better to the pasta, for this, don't use spaghetti, something tubular is more indicated, like "tortiglioni" or "penne".

Enjoy!
