The ragu modenese is like the lesser known but no less warm Bolognese ragu, little brother. It's just a simple sofritto, proscuitto, mortadella, pork, broth, and cheese. You will not believe that this magic sauce comes from so few ingredients, with so little preparation time.

How to make quality pasta in restaurants

One final note: the biggest difference between restaurant quality pasta and the pasta you make at home is the way you finish and sprinkle the pasta. The best way to finish this specific sauce is to cook the pasta 1 minute ahead of package time, then drain and transfer to a nonstick skillet with about 1/4 - 1/2 cup sauce per serving. Once the pasta is well in sauce, add chili cheese flakes as desired, and place on the plate. Take advantage immediately.
