Piquant Red Sauce Preparation

MAKES 4 CUPS LACTO If you cook with dairy products, this tangy red sauce is a good choice for tubular pasta, such as penne or rigatoni. In large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring often, 1 minute. (Do not let it brown.) Add red pepper flakes, thyme or tarragon, sugar and vodka or wine. Simmer until liquid is reduced by half, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and juice and simmer 10 minutes. Add half-and-half and cook 1 minute. (Do not allow to boil.) Remove from heat and stir in basil if desired. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
