Add tomato sauce, then a little water and more wine & water if needed while cooking.
4
Cook fairly fast and hard (bubbling) for 45 minutes to an hour with lid on for at least half the time, stirring regularly. With lid off, lower heat and simmer slowly for about 10 minutes.

Use just enough sauce to coat and stir good taglietelli or rustic fettucini which was boiled only to al dente and drained (NOT rinsed and no oil in water; only a little salt). Let rest for 3-4 minutes. Serve. Grated parmigiano is good but not preferred in Poppi with this dish.
