    I'm curious about one thing. You don't add the carrot and celery until after you sauté the meat. I generally sauté all of the vegetables at one time. Any reason for this? Also, with my recipe, I omit the tomatoes, but add a bit more tomato paste. I guess this is largely a matter of taste. Although I prefer white wine in this recipe, if all I have is red, that's what goes in. Italian cooking leaves a lot of room for improvisation, no?

    I made this last night and it was delicious! The only thing I did different was use red wine instead of white (cause I had) and had a whole lot of fresh basil that I chopped finely and added, also some chopped fresh mushrooms, but other than that followed to a tee and will be making again. Thanks Jim!

    The recipes that have been handed down for centuries are usually better than the gourmet creations of the same name.
