Why Is My Homemade Spaghetti Sauce Watery. Another suggestion is that pasta should never be rinsed unless it is intended to be used in a pasta salad. Of course I have also made my own.
Pasta water is a great addition to the sauce. Its a fairly standard recipe with passata and wine simmering on a low heat for a couple of hours. Mixing cornstarch with water may make you end up with gelatin instead of something that you can use to make your sauce thick.
So if you pull it out of the water at a ready-to-eat consistency by the time youre done mixing everything together it will actually be overcooked.
The steam from freshly cooked pasta causes condensation and thus the pool of water it creates when you add the sauce. Bolognese is a slow cooked meat sauce with the main other flavor being tomato. They also have a hot environment that probably dries out the pasta pretty fast. Hence the pretty restaurant plate.
