I made this tonight and everyone LOVED it! I don't care for pasta sauce, but I really liked this one. It had a special zing that everyone liked. The only thing I changed was I used half and half instead of heavy whipping cream because that is what I had in the fridge. Thank you Uncle Bill for posting this wonderful recipe. It will definatly be going in my cook book!

Most excellent white sauce I have ever made! I substituted sun-dried tomatos for the plum and added artichoke hearts! Yummy!!

This is really really good. I used a 28 oz can of crushed tomatoes which worked OK--added a bit more of the other stuff and more crushed red pepper. Yummy. We've had this several times already.

Yes sir Uncle Bill does it again! I used Rotella crushed tomatoes with chilies instead of the plum and some really crappy Vodka one of my cheap friends left. Turned out super. Thanks for a home for cheap Vodka!

OMG! This is SO good and easy. I made this with Rotini as that is what I had on hand. Used Skyy vodka and served with Italian sausage and onions on the side with a salad. Perfect. Thank you U. Bill

Wonderful. We used the sauce over ravioli and will definitely make again - I can't wait to try over gnocchi. The only change I made was to use a 14.5oz can of tomatoes. I was pleasantly surprised that cooking the crushed pepper in the oil at the beginning really made the spiciness come through just right - I'll have to try that technique in other recipes.

I made this to go over gnocchi and it was fantastic...didn't need any tweaking, although my husband might prefer that next time I cook it I refrain from using the expensive vodka and go with something more economical! Thanks for the great recipe...it will be used again and again in my house!

Simply fantastic and DH loved it. I didn't have whipping cream so I added mascarpone. Thank you Uncle Bill.

I also used a 28 oz can of tomatoes, and increased the amounts of other ingredients. Absolutely fantastic! I ate it over spaghetti squash, while the rest of the family had the linguine. We reheated the leftovers the next day, and the sauce really held up. I've had vodka sauces that separate after a night in the fridge, but this was equally good the next day.

We (my Husband and I) really enjoyed this! I made it a tad different. I used tri-color rotini pasta and a can of ready-cut diced tomatoes. I made sure to drain the tomatoes and dry them by soaking up any additional liquid using a paper towel before adding. I also added some fresh Italian herbs at the end! WONDERFUL!!! I will make this again and again. PERFECT for us!!! Thanks so much for posting this recipe!
