Homemade Vodka Sauce is a creamy, flavorful pasta sauce rooted in Italian-American cuisine. Typically made with crushed tomatoes, heavy cream, sautéed garlic, olive oil, and a splash of vodka, this sauce achieves a rich texture and balanced acidity. The vodka helps blend the flavors, creating a smooth, subtly tangy finish, while the cream adds indulgent silkiness. Parmesan cheese or herbs like basil are often added for extra depth. While Homemade Vodka Sauce is undeniably delicious, it is calorie-dense due to the cream and cheese content. However, using olive oil provides heart-healthy fats, and the tomatoes are rich in antioxidants like lycopene. For a lighter version, consider substituting lighter cream or milk and adding extra vegetables. It pairs perfectly with penne pasta or gnocchi, making it a comforting yet versatile dish for any occasion.
