Recipe Notes

I had this ragout at a restaurant recently and thought it so surprising and fantastic. At first I was surprised at the tastes from the five spice powder: I had expected traditional Italian-style flavors, and at first I wasn’t sure where the spice was going. It was served over spinach and roasted sweet potatoes and was just amazing.
