BIG Noods alla Gin with Sungold Tomatoes
Consider this a summer take on the classic Italian American red sauce joint style dish of Rigatoni alla Vodka. This version leans more heavily on fresh sungold tomatoes (this is a peak summer season only dish!!) than it does on tomato paste, and reduces the typical ratio of cream yielding a lighter, brighter end result. I’ve called for fresh lasagne sheets here because they’re fun and floppy and have lots of fun volume on the plate but you could of course use any pasta shape you like fresh or dried!
