Preparation Cut the skin of the meat in a few places and insert pieces of bacon. Then tie it with a piece of kitchen string. Dice the parsley, garlic, sage and rosemary and put it into a bowl with the salt and pepper, a pinch of cinnamon and a pinch of nutmeg. Put the oil into a saucepan with a knob of butter and sauté the onion sliced finely. Then roll the meat in the flour. Then spread the diced vegetables and the herbs over it.

Brown the meat on both sides and dissolve a little flour in the gravy. Then bathe all with a glass of Teroldego wine and let it evaporate. At this stage, pour the rest of the wine on the meat and continue cooking with the lid on for as long as necessary (three hours as least) . Taste the gravy to check the cooking and add a little salt, if required. Then sieve the gravy and spread it over the meat again.
 
The Chef's tips Teroldego del Campo Rotaliano is a 12° ruby red wine to be served at 20°C.
 
Curiosity This method of braising is used in many parts of this country as the wine makes the meat so tender that it melts in your mouth.
