Critical Success Points

  • • Properly browning the meat for maximum flavor.
  • • Simmering the bolognese sauce long enough to develop depth.
  • • Making a smooth, lump-free béchamel.
  • • Layering so all pasta is covered with sauce.
  • • Gratinating the top without burning.

Safety Warnings

  • • Use caution when browning meat and simmering sauces; hot oil and steam can cause burns.
  • • Careful when broiling/gratinating to avoid burns from the oven.
  • • Egg yolk must be mixed quickly into hot béchamel to avoid scrambling.
