Let the mushrooms soak in the just boiled water until tender, about 15-20 minutes, before chopping finely and reserving the water.

Meanwhile, cook the pancetta, ground beef and sausage in a large saucepan (or dutch oven), crumbling the meat as it cooks with a wooden spoon until brown all over before draining the grease and setting the meat aside.

Heat the oil in the same pan on medium-high heat add the onions, carrots and celery and cook until tender, about 7-10 minutes.

Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook until fragrant, about a minute.

Add the meats, reserved mushroom water, wine, diced tomatoes, tomato puree, bay leaves, and oregano and bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer, and cook anywhere from 10 minutes to 2-3 hours.

Add the cream and cheese, let the cheese melt into the sauce and season with salt and pepper to taste.

When appropriate, cook the fettuccine as directed on package and toss with the sauce or or serve with the sauce poured on top.

Toss the spaghetti and the sauce or serve the sauce on the spaghetti and garnish with parsley and grated parmigiano reggiano.
