A tip I (think) I got from Dinner: A Love Story is to put a liquid measuring cup in your colander while your pasta is boiling then you can’t forget to save that pasta water while draining! Happy New Year and thanks for the veggie menu!
About the punch...I freeze an ice ring out of the punch I’m serving with pomegranate seeds and let it float in the punch so it doesn’t water it down but keeps it chilled
Highly recommend adding Trader Joe’s bomba sauce (or any other Calabrian chili paste) to make this spicy. But also perfect as is! Another fantastic recipe to have on repeat.
Sheepishly adding this in case it helps anyone else: be careful when adding the vodka to the pan if you have a gas range (and might also be balancing your toddler on your hip) - I spilled a little and the pan became a ball of fire for a minute. It went out quickly on its own and I tried again, children a safe distance away and flame off this time, and it still tasted amazing!
Am I crazy or did you recommend blending this sauce in a blender so it's super smoothe? I made it a year ago and swear i blended it but definitely don't need to add a step if you don't recommend
I made this for myself and it was so good that I tried to make this for my vegan man with Follow Your Heart parm (I put it through a food processor for melting help, just in case) and Silk dairy free heavy whipping cream (didn’t know it existed, Safeway carries both of these things) and it was AMAZING
curious why the sauce can only be made 24 hours in advance?! I made this over xmas and it was amazing, prepping for a dinner party this weekend and I suspect I can make it a couple of days in advance!

Is whipping cream the same as heavy cream? That was all TJ’s had
Making this for a crowd - need to triple. Think I can make triple the sauce in one pan or should I do it in batches?
This has to have taken a lot of time to write out, but I am so grateful for it! Thank you!!

Maybe the most excited I’ve ever been to cook a WTC meal

Holy crap I wanted to DRINK this sauce by itself. so good !!
Any tips for how to defrost / cook this sauce from frozen? I want to stock a friend’s freezer with this before her baby arrives.

The most delicious recipe!!
How do you reheat your frozen sauce??? Making pasta tonight and just realize I froze our leftover sauce from last time!
I’ve saved this recipe for months and finally made it tonight. Everyone said it’s one of their favorite meals I’ve ever made. Thank you!!!
