- Increase temperature to 350°F. Add ground beef and cook, breaking up large chunks, until browned, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Pour in milk and nutmeg; cook until almost evaporated, about 5 minutes.
- Add white wine and cook until almost evaporated, about 10 minutes.
- Add tomatoes, tomato paste, and beef stock. Lower heat to simmer, 200°F, and cook uncovered until sauce has thickened and meat is tender, about 1 hour longer.
- To serve, cook pasta according to package instructions, reserving one cup of cooking water. If sauce seems too thick, add reserved water.
- Gently combine hot pasta with meat sauce right in the skillet.
