When putting a lid on any sauce that’s going to simmer for a while, occasionally take a peek beneath the lid to make sure it isn’t boiling rapidly. Sauces tend to do that when you’re not looking.
If the burner is on the lowest setting and it’s still boiling rapidly, which happens sometimes, especially with electric stoves, then crack the lid just a hair to release some of the steam.
