Steps:
- Whisk the tomatoes, wine, tomato paste, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a 6-quart slow cooker. Add the rosemary and parmesan rind. Season the beef all over with salt and pepper and add to the slow cooker. Cover and cook on low until the meat is very tender, 7 hours. Shred the meat in the slow cooker with two forks, discarding any large pieces of fat. Discard the rosemary sprig and parmesan rind.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs. Reserve 1/2 cup cooking water, then drain. Return the pasta to the pot and add the shredded meat and sauce; stir in the reserved cooking water. Cook over medium-high heat, tossing occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and stir in half the parsley. Divide among bowls and drizzle with the olive oil; top with shredded parmesan and the remaining parsley.

PAPPARDELLE WITH BEEF SUGO AND RICOTTA
Steps:
- To reconstitute the porcini, put the mushrooms in a bowl and pour hot water over them to cover, about 2 cups. Soak until the mushrooms soften, 30 minutes. Carefully lift the mushrooms out of the liquid with a fork, so as not to disturb the sediment settling at the bottom. Coarsely chop the mushrooms; you should have about 3/4 cup. Strain the porcini soaking water into a measuring cup through a coffee filter or a double layer of paper towels; you should have 1 1/2 cups.
- Put a large skillet over medium heat and coat with 2 tablespoons of the oil. When the oil is shimmering, add the onion. Cook, stirring, until the onion begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Toss in half of the garlic, all of the thyme and rosemary, and season with salt and pepper. Add the chopped porcini, the tomatoes, and the short ribs. Stir everything together and cook for about 5 minutes. Pour in the wine and continue to cook until the liquid has evaporated, roughly 10 minutes. Pour in the broth and reserved porcini water. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. You should have about 6 cups of sauce.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pappardelle, give it a good stir, and cook until tender but still firm to the bite (al dente), 8 to 10 minutes.
- While the pasta is cooking, prepare the escarole. Put a skillet over medium heat and coat with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. When the oil is shimmering, add the remaining garlic and stir until golden, only about 30 seconds. Add the escarole, stirring to coat with oil, and raise the heat to high. Cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the escarole is wilted and most of its liquid has evaporated, 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add half of the sugo to the escarole and stir to combine. (Let the remaining sauce cool, then cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 1 month.)
- To serve, drain the pasta and put it back in the pot. Add the escarole and sauce, along with the butter and Parmesan, tossing to coat the pasta evenly. Divide among 4 plates. Top each with a spoonful of ricotta and shower with chopped parsley. Pass more grated cheese at the table.
JAMIE OLIVER'S PAPPARDELLE WITH BEEF RAGU
This wonderful recipe from Jamie Oliver is hearty and uncomplicated with a surprising pop of flavor thanks to the addition of rosemary and orange zest. Mr. Oliver prepares his in a pressure cooker, but if you don't have one, it can be cooked in a covered Dutch oven on the stove over low heat, or in a 275 degree oven, for about 3 hours. Stir occasionally.

Steps:
- Season beef with salt and pepper to taste. Place an uncovered pressure cooker or oven-proof Dutch oven over medium-high heat, and add olive oil. When oil is hot, add beef. Stir until beef is well browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Add rosemary and sage sprigs, onion, garlic, carrot and celery. Reduce heat to medium-low and sauté until vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add Chianti and continue to simmer until liquid has reduced by half, about 15 minutes. Add tomatoes and their juices, and if using pressure cooker, 1/2 cup water. Secure lid and pressure gauge of pressure cooker, and follow manufacturer's instructions to bring contents of pot to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 45 minutes. If using Dutch oven, simmer, covered, in a 275-degree oven, or on the stove over low heat, for 3 to 3 1/2 hours.
- Place a large pot of lightly salted water over high heat to bring to a boil. Remove pressure cooker from heat, or Dutch oven from oven. After pressure has dropped in pressure cooker, follow manufacturer's instructions to remove lid. Using two forks, finely shred meat and vegetables. Discard herb stems. Loosely cover pan and return it to low heat to keep warm.
- Add pappardelle to boiling water. As it cooks, scoop out 1/2 cup water and reserve. Cook pasta to taste, then drain well. Return pasta to pot, and add butter and 1/4 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano; mix gently until butter has melted. Add a little reserved cooking water to loosen.
- To serve, lift pasta into each of six shallow bowls. Spoon beef ragù over top. Sprinkle each bowl with a pinch of orange zest and rosemary, and a spoonful of cheese.
