In the forests of the province of Grosseto and the hills around Siena, wild boar is an integral part of the ecosystem and local culinary tradition. Wild boar ragù is no ordinary meat sauce: it has a wild, lingering aromatic profile that no farm-raised meat can replicate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaremmana ragù stands out for three things: its exceptionally high meat content, with 60% selected wild boar, ensuring texture and intensity in every bite; slow cooking that tenderizes the wild meat without losing its aromas; and its simple ingredients: wild boar, Tuscan tomatoes, red wine, and natural herbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFeature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eArtisanal Tuscan Wild Boar Ragù\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProducer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaremmana, Tuscany\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWild boar meat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60%, selected\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCooking\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlow, artisanal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUse\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReady to use, just heat and serve\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to use Tuscan Wild Boar Ragù\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWith Pici, a dish from Siena's culinary tradition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePici with wild boar ragù is the most iconic dish of Siena's cuisine.

This proportion ensures a hearty texture, rich flavor, and visible pieces of meat in every serving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it ready to use?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, Maremmana ragù is fully cooked and ready to use. Simply heat it in a pan with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil for 3-4 minutes, add a ladleful of pasta cooking water to bring it together, and toss with the pasta. No additional preparation is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich pasta pairs best with it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePici senesi are the traditional choice; the thick, irregular pasta catches the ragù perfectly. It’s also excellent with pappardelle, wide tagliatelle, or rigatoni. Avoid smooth, thin pasta shapes; the ragù needs pasta that will hold it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow should it be stored?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStore in a cool, dry place before opening. After opening: transfer to a container with a lid and refrigerate for up to 3-4 days. You can also freeze leftover ragù in portions; it defrosts perfectly at room temperature or in a bain-marie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it contain allergens?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCheck the product label for a complete list of allergens.
