it is a traditional greek recipe (i learnt it from my mom – tho i am sure there are plenty of italian recipes similar to it) and actually there are a couple of alternatives you could try, which in turn i learnt from other greek moms…
my latest one is to add some spiced sausage – you have to cut it in small pieces tho, the smaller the better! it does make the sauce heavier, but very much worth it as it adds a kick to it!
you could also add 4-5 whole black peppercorns to it, together with the cloves and cinnamon sticks.
hope this helps!

I Love a good spaghetti bolgonese. Have you tried using some pommagranite molases. It is my secret ingrediant. In addition to your recipe, I think it would work great. I am going to make this for lunch. Yumm!

I’ve done it with my meat pies (tourtière). It’s also common in Indian cooking. Those spices lend a certain earthiness to the dish. I’m looking forward to trying it with a bolognese! Yum!

My bro thought she learned this from an Italian boyfriend or something… It could very well be a family recipe ;-) Either way, it’s fab!

This is very Greek byzantium style. We put cinnamon and nutmeg tomato meat sauces all the time. Maybe Anatassia is Greek? lol It’s a Greek name! Either way, I like your stuff here!

Nothing as fancy as this, but it always seemed very upscale because he made it.

I love the addition of cloves and cinnamon in this sauce — I bet it really develops a wonderful flavor as it simmers. Can’t wait to try!
