It's a bit like saying your are 49 1/2 years old... Nutmeg in meat sauce is very common here -- some say too common. It depends how I'm using it, really. There's one brand of tomatoes that makes me think cloves, so I use Byzantine spices with those... cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg all together. When you come right down to it, you can even play with the ragù without breaking a single tradition. Only people our height say 1/2 or 1/4″ measures.

It\\\'s very similar to my usual \\\'spaghetti\\\' sauce, but I haven\\\'t tried it with nutmeg, yet - I think I\\\'ll try that next time. Oh, and I usually add some fresh marjoram, because we like the taste (and it seems to grow better for me, than oregano). Nice recipe.

This is just the lowered fat and more streamlined base recipe I've worked out. WBF, sometimes I agree. Sheila, I use what I feel like, too.
