Saute. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook pancetta (4 ounces) until crispy. Remove cooked pancetta to a paper towel lined plate with a slotted spoon, leaving the pancetta fat in the pan. Add the onion (1 cup) and cook until soft - about 7 minutes. Remove cooked onion to the pancetta plate.
Meat. Add the beef (1 pound) and cook until no longer pink-- breaking up with the back of your spoon as it cook. Add the garlic (1 tablespoon), crushed red pepper flakes (1/4 teaspoon), Italian seasoning (1 tablespoon) and rosemary (1 teaspoon) to the pan. Stir and saute until the garlic is fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Simmer. Add the red wine (1 1/4 cups) and scrape up any brown bits that have accumulated on the bottom of the skillet. Add cooked pancetta, onion, crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, salt (2 teaspoons) and pepper (1/2 teaspoon), and stir to combine. Bring bolognese to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook uncovered for 10 minutes.
The noodles. If you like al dente noodles, don't cook the zucchini, just place it in bowls. If you like it a little softer, microwave on high for 1 minute-- increasing by 30 second intervals until you achieve your desired texture. (note 5)
Finishing touches. Add the nutmeg (1/4 teaspoon) and cream (1 cup) to the bolognese, stir, and continue to simmer for another 15-20 minutes. This will depend on the heat of your pan-- you'll want to reduce the bolognese enough so the sauce can coat your noodles. Taste, and adjust to your liking (note 6). Divide the noodles into 4 bowls, and cover with bolognese. Sprinkle with parmesan, chopped basil (1/2 cup), and enjoy!
