I made this as the sauce and served with grilled scallops for the first night, then over pasta the second night, and as a dipping sauce with bread the third night. My husband loves it so much he thinks I should can this sauce and give away as gift! I skipped the prosciutto and garlic and followed the rest of the recipe. This recipe is delicious!

I love vodka sauce and was excited to try this. I did not care for it! All I could taste was vodka. I added more of my homemade sauce and a ton of pancetta to make it palatable. Next time, I'll halve the vodka.

Shame on you, NDULAK! You leave out the KEY ingredient, prosciutto, and complain about how bad it was! That's like leaving the tomatoes out of tomato soup and complaining that the soup is awful. Please people, prepare the recipe as written the first time. THEN write your review. THEN go ahead and make your changes. You then can submit it as a new recipe. So often here, the reviews are so drastically different from the original recipe that there is virtually no resemblance to the original. Again, shame on you, NDULAK!

Absolutely wonderful, make sure you use a good vodka for it. If you want to skip the soaking your vodka in red peppers you can certainly get away with using a pepper vodka.

This was delicious and very easy. I omit the roma tomatoes, I use to cans of tomato sauce. The prosciutto adds flavor without "chunks" (a concern for my kids).

A good start, but needs some tweaks. Poster was not kidding when he said it would be spicy. Also, the prosciutto overpowered a lot of the flavors. When I make it again, I'm going to cut the amount of prosciutto and red pepper in half and add a 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese after the cream.

I have used this recipe about 4 times now, and it is consistently excellent. I always use the proccuitto because it provides the rich, deep flavor. The chili flakes in the vodka add just the right amount of spice. Thanks for the recipe!
