sugo (Italian)

Rfv-sense of "gravy", previously deleted out of process by an IP. Treccani has this sense. [1] ←₰-→ Lingo ^Bingo _Dingo (talk) 07:35, 18 June 2019 (UTC)

English-style gravy is virtually unknown in Italian cuisine. The concept that perhaps comes closest is sugo d’arrosto. When used without further qualifications for a sauce, every Italian will assume sugo is short for sugo di pomodoro, which refers to a tomato-based sauce. You can also use sugo di carne to mean a meat-based sauce, as seen in this old cookbook. I think, though, that one would not call such a sauce “gravy”, but rather a “meat sauce”.  --Lambiam 21:43, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
