Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Use good quality prosciutto, shallots, vodka, and tomatoes to ensure the best flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the prosciutto and shallots, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the vodka until it reduces: When adding the vodka to the sauce, let it cook until it reduces by half. This will help to concentrate the flavor.
  • Use a good quality tomato sauce: You can use your own homemade tomato sauce or a good quality store-bought sauce. If using a store-bought sauce, be sure to choose one that is flavorful and has a good consistency.
  • Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes: This will help to develop the flavor of the sauce and allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Season the sauce to taste: Taste the sauce and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs.
  • Serve the sauce over your favorite pasta: This sauce is great served over spaghetti, linguine, or penne.
