About Penne alla vodka

Penne Alla Vodka is a creamy pasta dish originating from Italian-American cuisine, famous for its rich and flavorful sauce. The dish combines penne pasta with a tomato-based sauce infused with heavy cream, vodka, and often Parmesan cheese, creating a silky texture and balanced taste. Garlic, onions, and sometimes crushed red pepper flakes are used to add depth and subtle spice. While the pasta provides a good source of carbohydrates for energy, the sauce is high in calories and saturated fats due to the cream and cheese. However, the tomatoes contribute vitamins such as A and C along with antioxidants like lycopene. This dish appeals to those seeking comfort food, but moderation is advised to enjoy its indulgent nature without exceeding daily calorie and fat limits.
