Giada's Pasta Alla Vodka

ratings
· 1hr 25min · 6 servings
I love pasta alla vodka because it’s incredibly simple to throw together, but it always feels a bit special. The vodka brings out some really incredible flavor in the tomato sauce, and makes it taste extra vibrant – all while the cream gives it a velvety, luxurious texture.
