I just don't understand the point of vodka sauce. Vodka has little taste, if any, it is just a way to get alcohol into your system. Most if not all of the alcohol evaporates in the cooking process. This leaves you with just the non-alcohol content of the vodka, water. Therefore, if you need to thin your sauce, use some decent water, or if you want to add taste to your sauce, use a good cooking wine, maybe even an off label bourbon if you want to make it taste liquorish. Anise if you want it to taste like licorish Still, if you enjoyed it Müs, wonderful, I'm happy for you. |

The flavor of the vodka is absorbed by the proscuitto And yeah, there is a flavor as not all the alcohol cooks off. And ha ha. I fixed my freudian slip

So, just lie down on the couch over there. How long have you considered potatoes to be a Freudian aspect of life. They tend to be a little lumpy or deformed to represent a penis. The fingerling potatoes might work but they are relatively new, and still deformed for a penis. You know Müs, sometimes a spud is just a spud. |
