This rich meat sauce comes from Leghorn on the Tuscan coast. There it is served penne or rigatoni. If you prefer you could also serve it with spiral-shaped fusilli. Despite its meat base it does not
take very long to cook. I usually chop the meat in a food processor but you need to be careful not to over-process it. Serve with a crunchy salad of apples, celery and walnuts.
