Late Summer Sugo
Sugo is a classic Italian sauce that presents as a hearty complement to a plant or animal protein, especially when prepared with these wonderful ingredients that transition us from summer to fall. The 1440 Multiversity culinary team chose to make and serve this comforting dish in August while volunteering with World Central Kitchen to nourish evacuees and first responders from the CZU Lightning Complex fires. Accompany with roasted mushroom or braised lamb, lemon gremolata, and summer squash succotash, this delicious sauce is a perfect way to celebrate late summer.
