When we think about Italian food in the United States, we usually imagine pizza, spaghetti and meatballs, and lots and lots of cheese. Some of the foods we eat in the US are not exactly like the food in Italy, and today, you'll learn about a local Florence dish.
Parpardelle al ragù di cinghiale, or a wide pasta with wild boar sauce.
Wild boar isn't something I would ever have tried at home, but I decided to give it a try while I was here because it's a local specialty. It was absolutely delicious!
The ragù sauce is a tomato-based sauce with meat, in this case, wild boar.
This is a local specialty! People in Tuscany have been eating wild boar for centuries.
