03 Method

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large pot or dutch oven over medium heat. When it is shimmering, add the ground beef, pork and veal, and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until the meat is browned.
Step 2

Add the onion and garlic to the meat mixture and saute, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent about 7 to 10 minutes. Stir in the dried basil and season with salt and pepper.
Step 3

Stir in the red wine and let simmer for about 1 minute, until mostly evaporated.
Step 4

Reduce the heat to low and add the crushed tomatoes and tomato puree to the pot, stirring to incorporate. Reduce the heat to the lowest simmer possible, and place a lid on the pot slightly ajar. Simmer for 2 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally.
