Corzetti pasta with vegetarian ragu

20 May 2016 by Filippo Romagnoli

Pot of vegetarian ragu or sugo finto for corzetti pasta

Florentines refer to vegetarian ragu as “sugo finto,” which literally means fake sauce (“fake” because a “proper” sauce would always include meat). This pasta sauce is made with onions, carrots, celery, tomatoes, and red wine, and is fantastic for corzetti because of its meaty consistency.

Corzetti pasta with vegetarian ragu (“sugo finto”)

Ingredients (serves 4):

For the sauce:

2 carrots

1 onion

2 garlic cloves

1 celery

a bunch of parsley

a can of tomato juice

1/2 bottle of red wine (Chianti)

 

extra virgin olive oil

black pepper

salt

Wash and clean the carrots, onion, celery and parseley. Chop finely the onion and the garlic cloves and set aside. Then chop the vegetables.

Heat some extra virgin olive oil in a large pot, and when the oil is hot, add the chopped onion and garlic, and the vegetables. Sauté for a few minutes until the onion becomes translucent and the other vegetables are soft. Once the vegetables turn golden, add the red wine, preferably Chianti, and let it evaporate. Now add the tomato juice, stirring from time to time. In one hour or so, sugo finto will be ready.

ABOUT CORZETTI STAMPS

A corzetti stamp is a two-piece pasta tool: one piece is a pasta cutter, the other is an engraved stamp with a design that embosses itself on the pasta. Our corzetti stamps are handmade in our Tuscany-based workshop using quality woods and no paint or lacquer.
