Weeknight Weekend Gatherings Dairy/Cream Extra Virgin Olive Oil Garlic Tomatoes Al Bronzo® Organic Pasta Short

This scratch made vodka sauce recipe requires very little ingredient preparation and yields a delicious creamy sauce. Garlic, onion, and pepper flakes are sautéed in extra virgin olive oil, and then combined with tomato paste, vodka, and cream. The tomato cream sauce is reduced and added to Al Bronzo^® Mezzi Rigatoni pasta and topped with freshly shaved Parmigiano-Reggiano and parsley for an enjoyable meal to share with friends and family. Barilla^® Al Bronzo^® pasta is made by extruding dough through a bronze die that is micro engraved. This gives the pasta a rougher texture, allowing pasta sauces to perfectly adhere to our beautifully crafted pasta.
