I’m not Italian. I enjoy pasta like everyone else. I like a tomato sauce, I’ll eat a cream sauce, but I love vodka sauce. There’s something special about a rose sauce with a little something extra. I’ve always found jarred/canned/anything-other-than-homemade pasta sauces so blah. Then everything changed…
PC Black Label Vodka Sauce is, hands-down, the best mass-produced jarred pasta sauce I have ever tasted. This was one of the very first PC Black Label products I tried. I bought it right around launch and once I tried it literally bought every jar I could find. Then it was out of stock for a couple of months – those were sad days, I tried a bunch of Loblaws to find it until magically it was back! I am a huge evangelist about things I love (part of the reason this section of the blog exists) and believe me, I started spreading the word. I must have sold hundreds of jars by now!
It has become a staple in our house. A quick weeknight meal. Penne, chili flakes for some spice and some Parmesan cheese. The sauce has the right zingy balance of tomato, a little cream, vodka and cheese to add something a little different. This isn’t your average tomato sauce. I promise you won’t look at jarred sauces the same way again. Try it, you’ll be hooked!
