The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

ingredients
1/2 pound linguine or favorite string pasta
1/4 cup butter
2 cloves garlic, peeled, minced or to taste
2 tablespoons dry white wine or dry sherry
20 medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 can (15.5 ounce size) diced tomatoes
1 teaspoon minced fresh cilantro or more to taste
2 ounces feta cheese, crumbled coarsely
fresh Parmesan-Reggiano cheese, shredded (optional)
directions
Cook the pasta according to the package directions and drain.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat the butter, garlic and wine over medium heat until the butter is melted. Add the shrimp, diced tomato and cilantro and saute the mixture over moderately high heat for 3 minutes, or until the shrimp are just firm to the touch but cooked through.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the feta cheese. Pour over the linguine and sprinkle with the Parmesan-Reggiano cheese, if desired. Serve with a crusty bread.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
