DH is always complaining the sauce isn't sticking to the spaghetti, so next time I will really let it thicken.  If that fails, move to plan B, the cornstarch.

@depglass  You can also try mixing in some grated parm or grated Asiago cheese to the pasta before you add the sauce.   It will help it stick to the it.  DW

Are you using a jar sauce?

When making the sauce, tip the lid so that the liquid evaporates and the sauce thickens. Cook on low & don't have to stir that often. We also put in raw meat (no browning first, as the meat is more tender the other way) and let that simmer away - usually about 3 hours.

We use 1 can of puree, a bit of water to rinse the can, and a bit of red wine.

If you're using a jar sauce, I don't think you have to cook that long. It's already cooked. You're not rinsing the pasta, are you?

(We don't have to tip the lid, because the sauce thickens.)

I don't think I could ever add cornstarch, but I guess it's a solution.
