METHOD:

Clean the carrot, onion and celery and chop them finely. Pour the 4 tablespoons of oil into a large saucepan and add the chopped onion, carrot and celery, then the whole clove of garlic (this will make it easier to remove). Leave to simmer for 10 minutes on a low flame, then add the ground wild boar.
Leave to brown for another 10 minutes on a higher flame, stirring occasionally so that the meat is cooked evenly. Pour the glass of red wine, the rosemary and the gold leaf, cook for another 30 minutes over low heat, when the wine has completely evaporated, add the tomato puree.
Add the salt and cook for about 2 hours with the lid on and over low heat. after the time has elapsed, remove the lid and cook, stirring frequently, for at least 30 minutes.
When the Ragù is cooked, turn off the heat and  only at the end add the Carolina Reaper pepper, the tip of a teaspoon will suffice (the amount of  pepper depends on personal taste and tolerance). It is essential to mix well after adding the chilli.
Cook the pappardelle in plenty of salted water, when there is one minute left before the pasta is cooked, drain it and put it in a pan where you have added the amount of ragù you want, finish cooking the pappardelle in the ragù, add a little water if necessary cooking pasta. serve by adding a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.

VIRTUE OF THE WORLD'S HOTTEST CHILI PEPPER THE DEAR CAROLINA REAPER:

Undoubtedly it is considered the hottest pepper there is, but for sure it is also the best if added in minimal doses. In fact, many famous chefs use the hottest peppers to add in homeopathic doses to their recipes. The Carolina Reaper is the most used, it enters the kitchens of the most famous on tiptoe making their recipes more fragrant and tasty.
I often use the Carolina Reaper also for tomato soup, or for stews, but pay close attention to the dose.
