Genovese sauce is another Italian classic out of Naples. Lots of onions and chuck roast are cooked down for hours with a splash of wine and a soffritto. You wind up with a slightly sweet and rich onion sauce with fall apart beef. As it's name suggests Genovese sauce is traditionally served over a large cylindrical pasta such as Rigatoni alla Genovese.

My children wouldn't care if all I ever gave them was pasta with some bottled sauce poured over, and I don't deny that's sometimes indeed what they are given; but to please myself, and them, this is what I make when I get it together a little. Making this is hardly effortful; the potatoes cook in the pasta water — requiring a little extra time, nothing more — and the pinenutless pesto is whizzed up easily by the processor. And please read the Additional Information section at the end of the…

To many Neapolitans, the beef sauce La Genovese is at the heart of the city's cooking. Yet it’s little more than onions (lots of them) and beef, simmered until both fall apart. Boiling the onions before cooking is a variation on traditional technique and could be considered a shortcut; it does save time, though not a whole lot of it. It's easy enough, and more traditional, to slice the onions raw and increase cooking time accordingly.
