Welcome to the kitchen and introduce the dish.

Discuss the importance of cleaning wild game before cooking.

Place thawed wild boar pieces in a large bowl with cold water, 1 glass of vinegar, and a handful of coarse salt.

Stir well and notice the water changing color; repeat this process three times, letting the meat soak for 15 minutes during the second wash.

After cleaning, the meat should appear pink and free of impurities.

Prepare for cooking by heating a good amount of olive oil in a pan.

Add the cleaned meat to the pan and brown it until it releases its wild flavor and the smell dissipates.

In a separate pot, add olive oil and sauté garlic and chili until fragrant.

Add chopped onion, carrot, and celery to the pot and sauté until soft.

Transfer the browned meat to the pot with the sautéed vegetables.

Increase the heat and add 0.5 liters of white wine, allowing it to evaporate the alcohol.

Add bay leaves, rosemary, sage, and juniper berries to the pot.

Season with salt and black pepper, and cook uncovered for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Once the alcohol smell has evaporated, reduce heat and cover the pot, continuing to cook.

After 30 minutes, add 700 g of tomato sauce and a bit of water to the pot.
