Vodka enhances the flavor of the tomato sauce, and it helps create a more cohesive texture (it helps the tomato paste blend better with the heavy cream).

How To Make Gigi Hadid Pastaīoil the pasta according to the package instructions, and reserve some of the pasta water before draining. I recommend reserving 1 cup of pasta water (even though you should only need 1/2 cup). Pasta Water: Pasta water adds flavor, thins the sauce in way that still provides body, and helps bind the ingredients of the sauce together. It has a different flavor than the other fats in the dish, and helps create a well rounded flavor profile. You can add more if you like it really spicy, or you can omit it if you don’t like any spice.īutter: Stirring in a bit of butter at the end with the cooked pasta adds another layer of flavor. Parmesan Cheese: Parmesan cheese adds in a salty and umami flavor profile that adds a lot of depth to the sauce.Ĭrushed Red Pepper Flakes: This adds the spice that makes it a spicy vodka sauce. Heavy Cream: Heavy cream (also called whipping cream) creates the perfect creamy base for this sauce. Vodka: Vodka helps elevate the flavor of the sauce, and helps create a more cohesive texture. Using tomato paste instead of tomato sauce allows you to get all the flavor without thinning out the sauce with too much liquid. Tomato Paste: Tomato paste is the perfect tomato base for this pasta sauce. If you don’t have shallot, you can swap it for red onion. It’s the perfect fat to saute the flavorful ingredients in.Īromatics: A combination of the sweetness from the shallots and the nutty flavor of the garlic flavors this dish so well. Oil: Extra virgin olive oil is the way to go for this recipe. I prefer white pasta, but you could use whole wheat pasta if you prefer. If you use penne, this would actually be a Penne alla Vodka recipe. You could also use penne pasta or bowtie pasta.
I love the way the little nooks hold pockets of the delicious sauce. Pasta: Gigi used shell pasta, which is my favorite pasta for this dish.
