Can I store modular content in something other than the page content?

Is there anyway to store modular content is something other than 'content' in the yaml file? I want to fill a sidebar with modular content, but from the docs it becomes part of the page content and then gets rendered with the content.

process:
    markdown: true
    twig: true
content:
    items: '@self.modular'
    order:
        by: default
        dir: asc
        custom:
            - find-specific
            - popular-posts

{% include 'partials/most-recent-posts.html.twig' %}

This gets rendered with {{ page.content }} in my template which is undesirable. What's the best way to store and render modular content separate from the page content? Thanks.

@skipper, It seems I often get confused lately... And unfortunately, I'm also getting confused by this question.

• What is: modular content?
  The markdown (= content) of a modular page (modular.md), or the end-result of a Twig template that combines the content (markdown) of several modules into a single HTML page?
• What do you mean by: is something other than ‘content’ in the yaml file
  • What is "'content'"
  • Which yaml file? Or do you perhaps mean the frontmatter/header (which contains yaml) of the page?

Please clarify...

In your snippet you are trying to include the result of a Twig template into the Markdown (content) of a modular page.

• Why?
• Shouldn't the Twig file for that modular page be changed?
  Or maybe create a new module for the modular, with its own Twig template that lists the "most-recent-posts?
• What are you trying to achieve?
