    a good tip for the pasta is to drain it and stir in a big spoon of the bolognese sauce to keep it moist and stop it sticking together and it also stops it looking so pasty.
    I just use a glug of olive oil to stop it for sticking. I think a spoon of sauce would just make it look messy presentation wise.

    If you make the sauce the day before it is needed, and cook it down so that a good lot of the liquid is evaporated off, there shouldn't be any need to 'beef it up'....
    I agree making it the day before allows the herbs and other flavours to really develop and the sauce is far more flavoursome as a result

    i used to do that, but i find that a little bit of sauce is much better (pardon the pun:)) and doesn't leave the pasta so greasy.

    I actually picked up the tip off a tv chef somewhere or other. :)

    i don't make it the day before, but I always make enough for at least two days anyway, and it's always nicer once everything has mingled.
