The Story Behind The Sauce: Vodka
Vodka sauce dishes such as penne alla vodka burst onto the Italian food scene in the 1970s, but did it originate in New York or Italy?
Storytelling is a side dish perfectly paired with all food, but especially with Italian meals. As families and friends congregate around tables for hours on end, they often pass around daily anecdotes along with platters of pasta and meat. This is the beauty of dining with Italians—food doesn't merely feed the body, it nourishes the soul in a celebration of life, love and community. Join Paesana as we take you on a journey through the many aspects of our process, from our kitchen to yours.
