Vodka

Vodka is a clear distilled alcoholic spirit with a neutral flavour, traditionally made from grain or potatoes. In the kitchen, it is used not only as a drink but also as a culinary ingredient. It is added to pancake or crepe batters for a lighter texture, used in meat marinades or sauces where it helps release aromatic compounds. The Italian pasta sauce alla vodka is one of the most well-known examples of its culinary use. It can also be used for flambéing dishes to add a dramatic finishing touch.
