How to prepare the scottiglia
In a very large pan, brown all the meats, without oil, then cover them with chopped onion, celery, carrot, parsley and basil.
When everything is well browned, sprinkle with 2 glasses of wine and let it evaporate slowly.
Then add the tomatoes, salt, pepper and cook, covered, for over 2 hours.
In the end, the meat must be very soft, the pulp must be detached from the bones and the sauce must be abundant.
Serve everything, not too hot, on toasted slices of bread.
