Method

  1. 1 Fry the duck pieces in olive oil for 10 minutes until the skin is golden brown and the fat renders out.
  2. 2 Sauté chopped onions, carrots, and celery in duck fat for 12 minutes to form a base.
  3. 3 Pour in the red wine and simmer until it reduces by half, then add the canned tomatoes and sage leaves.
  4. 4 Simmer the duck for 80 minutes, then remove the meat from the bones and return the shredded meat to the pot.
  5. 5 Bigoli is a type of pasta with a dense, textured interior, so it absorbs duck sauce better than smooth spaghetti.
  6. 6 Boil the bigoli for 8 minutes, then mix them into the sauce and sprinkle with Parmigiano.
