Pasta:
¼ lb. All-Purpose flour
¼ lb. Semolina
2 whole eggs
2 egg yolks
2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Kosher salt
Sauce:
1 lb. of Pork Shoulder
1 lb. of Boneless Beef Chuck Short Rib
1 medium onion, small dice
1 stalk of celery, small dice
1 medium carrot, small dice
8 cloves of garlic, minced
4 or 5 bay leaves, depending on size
2 sprigs of rosemary
2 sprigs of thyme
1 cup of red wine
4 ½ cups of canned San Marzano tomatoes
1 cup veal stock
Vegetable oil for sautéing
Salt and pepper to taste
Making the pasta (will require a pasta dough roller):
Mix the all-purpose flour and semolina together. Mound the flour on a flat, non-porous work surface and make a well in the center. In this well add the whole eggs, egg yolks, olive oil and salt. Use a fork to mix them together. As you whisk the liquids, slowly add flour from the outside of the well into the center until you have incorporated it all.
At this point the dough will be formed, and it will require kneading with your hands for 5 to 10 minutes. Once finished allow dough to rest by covering with a towel or plastic wrap and set aside for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, cut into 4 equal size pieces and follow the procedure for making pasta sheets with your pasta roller. Once sheets are formed, place on cutting board and cut into random triangles. Lightly flour the pieces after they are cut so they do not stick to one another.
Making the sauce:
Preheat the oven to 375°. Cut your pork shoulder and beef short rib into large chunks and season with salt and pepper as desired. Lightly oil a large sauté pan and heat to high. Place the meat into the pan, but do not crowd the pan. Sear the meat on all sides until golden. Remove from the pan and set aside. Reduce your heat to low. Place the onion, celery, carrot, garlic, bay leaves, rosemary and thyme into the same pan. When these items begin to be translucent (4 or 5 minutes) add the wine and reduce by 1/3 cup. Place the seared meat, the contents of the sauté pan, the canned tomatoes, and veal stock into a deep 8 x 8 baking dish. Lightly season and cover with saran wrap and then aluminum foil. Place the dish into your preheated oven and cook for 3 hours. When finished the meat should be very tender. After it has cooled shred the meat into edible pieces and gently smash any large tomato chunks.
Just before eating:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. While water is coming to a boil, reheat your sauce in a large sauté pan, allowing space to add in cooked pasta. Cook your pasta for 3-4 minutes, as fresh pasta will cook much faster than dried pasta. Drain pasta in a colander and place it directly in the sauce. Allow for pasta to cook in the sauce to absorb more of the flavor. Top with Parmesan cheese and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil.
