1 pinch salt [optional] 0.2 g
ground pepper to taste [optional]

Before you start

A blender or food processor will be very useful to purée the sauce.

Method

  2. Remove the pan from the heat, then stir in the cream and vodka. Mix well then purée in a blender. More or less vodka may be added depending on personal preference.

Observations

This sauce can be stored up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator; up to 3 months in the freezer.

I didn't have fresh garlic so I used garlic powder and pasta seasoning from Victorian Epicure instead. Worked wonderfully!
