INSTRUCTIONS
FOR THE FETTUCINE
FOR THE SAUCE
Bring water to a boil; add the kosher salt, and cook the pasta at a rapid
boil until 'al dente", 8-10 minutes. Drain. Grate the rind of 1 lemon,
then squeeze the juice out and reserve.
Combine the cream and vodka in a 10-inch skillet and simmer for 5 minutes,
or until the sauce thickens a little. Add the lemon juice and rind to the
hot sauce and cook for 1 minute, stirring. Add the drained hot pasta to
the sauce and toss. Season with pepper, garnish with the parsley, and
serve immediately on warmed plates. Serve the parmesan separately.
VARIATION: Add cooked scallops, and/or cooked asparagus, cut in 1-inch
pieces, into the sauce, just before tossing with pasta.
Garnish with slices of the second Lemon.
