Method

01
Heat olive oil in a heavy pot over medium. Cook onion, carrot, and celery (soffritto) until very soft, about 8 minutes. Add garlic, cook 1 minute.
02
Add ground beef and pork. Cook, breaking up, until no longer pink and beginning to brown, about 10 minutes.
03
Add tomato paste, cook 2 minutes. Pour in wine and simmer 3 minutes until mostly absorbed.
04
Add crushed tomatoes and milk. Season generously with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and cook uncovered 25–30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
05
Cook pasta in salted boiling water until al dente. Reserve 1 cup pasta water, then drain.
06
Toss pasta with sauce, adding pasta water as needed for silky consistency. Serve with parmesan.
