I'd think it would make a great Bolognese sauce.  Nice, thick and rich.  At the end of cooking it down w/tomatoes, add a dash of nutmeg and a couple of T. of cream.  That will definitely make the flavors memorable.  <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Clapping.gif" alt="" />
