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.
Steak Pizzaiola

- #126678
Pizzaiola refers to slowly simmering meat in a tomato-based sauce. It's often done with cheaper cuts of meat in order to tenderize them, but the same technique (just with a shorter cooking time) works great with steaks as well.

directions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and stir for one minute (do not let the garlic brown).
