PENNE RIGATTI ALA VODKA



Penne Rigatti Ala Vodka image

A very easy recipe to make and is very tasty. Found a recipe similar to this one several years ago and made my own modifications to achieve a nice flavor. This recipe doubles very well, but be careful when igniting the Vodka. I suggest that the Vodka and cayenne pepper be burned in separte batches, then combine together before continuing with the recipe.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb penne rigate (or a pasta of your choice)
1 tablespoon salt
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 fluid ounces vodka
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup whole milk, homogenized
1 cup whipping cream
2 tablespoons ketchup
1/2 cup grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese

Steps:

  • In a pasta pot or a large cooking pot, fill 3/4 full with water and bring to a rolling boil.
  • Add 1 tablespoon salt and 2 tablespoons olive oil.
  • Add pasta and cook uncovered for about 12 minutes or until el dente'.
  • DO NOT OVERCOOK.
  • In the meantime, in a medium size frying pan, heat Vodka and cayenne pepper until near boiling.
  • CAREFULLY light the Vodka using a long stick match and let the alcohol burn off.
  • USE CAUTION.
  • Soon as the alcohol burns out, add the milk, heavy cream and ketchup.
  • Simmer until sauce thickens, about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add 1/4 cup of grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese and stir to blend.
  • Cook for 2 minutes longer.
  • Drain pasta well and transfer to a large bowl.
  • Pour sauce mixture over and toss to coat.
  • Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup of Parmigiano Reggiano cheese and mix lightly.
  • Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the final flavor of your dish. Use fresh, ripe tomatoes, good quality olive oil, and freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When cooking the pasta, make sure to use a large enough pan so that the pasta has plenty of room to cook evenly. If you overcrowd the pan, the pasta will cook unevenly and become mushy.
  • Cook the pasta al dente. This means that the pasta should be cooked until it is just tender, but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and unpleasant to eat.
  • Use a good quality vodka. The vodka you use will contribute to the flavor of the dish, so it's important to use a good quality vodka. Look for a vodka that is smooth and has a clean flavor.
  • Don't boil the vodka. When adding the vodka to the pan, make sure to let it simmer gently for a few minutes. Boiling the vodka will burn off the alcohol and ruin the flavor of the dish.
  • Serve immediately. This dish is best served immediately, while the pasta is still hot and the sauce is still creamy. If you let the dish sit for too long, the pasta will start to absorb the sauce and become dry.

Conclusion:

Penne rigate alla vodka is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is a great way to use up leftover vodka and it is also a crowd-pleaser.
