PENNE ALLA VODKA
Steps:
- Cook the pasta: Fill a large pot of water (about 4 quarts) and salt it generously. Set it over high heat and bring it to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, following package instructions. Drain the pasta into a colander set in the sink.
- Meanwhile, start the vodka sauce: Heat a large sauté pan over medium-low heat. Add the olive oil and once it's hot, add the garlic, salt, red pepper flakes, and black pepper. Cook until soft, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon, about 4 minutes. Pull the pan off the heat and add the vodka. You're doing this off the heat to avoid a flare-up, especially if you have a gas stove. Return the pan back to the heat, now medium-high, and cook the alcohol off, about 2 minutes. The vodka should be reduced by half.
- Add the crushed tomatoes: Pour in the crushed tomatoes and simmer for 5 minutes until the raw tomato flavor cooks off.
- Add the heavy cream: Reduce the heat to medium-low and stir in the butter and heavy cream. When the butter has melted, take the pan off heat and blend the sauce with an immersion blender until smooth. You may need to transfer the sauce into a narrower container to do this. You could use a blender instead. Transfer the sauce back into the pan and simmer until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper.
- Toss the pasta in the sauce: Add the drained pasta into the sauce. Sprinkle in 1/4 cup Pecorino, the basil, and parsley. Stir the pasta in the vodka sauce until evenly coated. Serve with more cheese sprinkled on top. Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat it on the stovetop over low heat with a splash of water or cream.

Steps:
- Place a large pot of salted water over high heat to bring to a boil. Pour tomatoes in a medium bowl and crush well with hands or chop in a food processor. Set aside.
- While water heats, prepare the sauce. In a large saucepan or deep skillet, heat oil and pancetta over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring frequently until pancetta is crisp, about 5 minutes. Add onion and cook, stirring constantly, until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and crushed red pepper and cook for 1 minute. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring often, until the tomato paste has taken on a slight brownish color, 2 to 3 minutes. Add vodka and cook until reduced by at least half. Stir in reserved tomatoes and juices and bring mixture to a simmer. Reduce heat and simmer until thickened, about 10 minutes.
- While sauce reduces, add pasta to boiling water and cook, according to package directions until al dente, 11 to 12 minutes.
- Once sauce is reduced, stir in heavy cream and pepper and cook for 3 minutes, stirring often. Stir in 1/3 cup cheese, parsley, basil and pasta until well combined. Season with additional salt and pepper if desired.
- Serve, sprinkled with remaining cheese and more herbs if desired.

PENNE RIGATTI ALA VODKA
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.

PENNE RIGATE IN A VODKA SAUCE
Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to boil for the pasta. When the sauce is almost done, slip the pasta into the pasta pot, stir around, and cook until al dente.
- Melt the butter in the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Toss in the diced onion and crushed garlic, and let them sweat a few minutes, without coloring. Clear a "hot spot" and toast the peperoncino for a minute. Then ladle in about 1/2 cup pasta water, stir, and let simmer to break down the onion, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Once the onion has softened, pour in the crushed tomatoes. Slosh out the can with about a cup of pasta water, and add it to the sauce. Season with salt, bring to a simmer, and cook until thickened, about 10 to 12 minutes.
- When the sauce has thickened, remove the garlic cloves, then add the half-and-half and vodka. Bring to a boil, and cook until the sauce comes together and thickens again. When the pasta is al dente, scoop out of the pot with a strainer or spider, and drop it directly into the sauce. Cook and toss the pasta in the sauce until coated all over. Remove from heat, and toss with the grated cheese and basil. Serve immediately.
