I dunno what it is about the vodka sauce, I learned a recipe back when I was just getting into cooking and I've made it more times than I can count. [...] ― underminer of twenty years of excellent contribution to this borad (dan m), Wednesday, 7 April 2021 03:42 (one month ago)

change vote to aglio e olio pls

my late night quick pasta option is similar to this but not with the lemon, which seems to be a key ingredient.

the one I made last night had close to a full bulb of garlic, three chillies and a load of pecorino grated over the top. no lemon. was perfect. but ofc it depends on the pasta shape too. my actual vote would be more like this:
spaghetti - aglio e oliolinguine - vongolemost other things - pesto (but alternatives considered)

the one time I looked at a recipe for aglio e olio it had lemon juice as an emulsifier for the boiled pasta and oil but looking around it's not a common ingredient for this one. I always use some butter as well as the oil with my sauces or simple pasta dishes.

Vodka sauce - that seems to be a specifically american thing? As someone living in a very heavily Italian populated community I cant say its a sauce I see here at all.

Yes, though there are claims it was invented in Italy

Italian chef making penne alla vodka. If I understood him, he's saying the use of vodka came via Croatian influence.

Can't stand marsala, I'm glad it received zero votes

there are a lot of good uses for marsala that aren't pasta sauce tbf
