"I am soo happy that I found this recipe, it is perfect. I did not find an Amarone at the wine store that I visited ( I really did not look very hard as I live in NYC and know where to find it) and used a Sangiovese instead. I otherwise did not alter the recipe and the end result was fantastic. I tell you: do not be afraid to make it, the recipe is easy to prepare and not time consuming at all ( it does requires time to cook but preparation time is not long). I am an experienced cook but I think that experience is not required, just make sure you get the salt and pepper seasoning of the flour and vegetables right and you would have made a crowd pleaser. Enjoy!
