Cavatelli with Venison Bolognese
"I created this recipe for my father-in-law, who is a big hunter," chef Michael Symon says. "I'm always looking for ways to cook up his fantastic venison in the fall and winter." In place of the traditional Bolognese combination of beef, veal and pork, the venison gives this lush sauce a great gamey flavor.
