Ingredients
2 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup finely minced shallots
3 medium garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 28-oz can whole tomatoes, crushed by hand
1/3 cup vodka
1/2 cup heavy cream
Kosher salt to taste
Directions
Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add in shallots and cook until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, tomato paste, and crushed red pepper and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove pan from heat and stir in tomatoes and vodka. Return to heat and simmer until alcohol cooks off, about 7 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. For a smooth sauce, transfer sauce to a jar of a blender and puree until smooth. Pour back into saucepan. Add in heavy cream and cook over medium heat until warmed through, about 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt to taste. Use immediately or store in refrigerator for up to a week or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
