Favorite album of the year and new singles, spicy rigatoni vodka, the best of the week online

The Sunday supplement #144

☞ I’ve never eaten at Carbone—the trendy, expensive Italian chain that celebrities enjoy in New York, Miami Beach, Las Vegas, etc. And I don’t intend to eat at Carbone unless someone else is buying. But I’ve heard how good the spicy rigatoni is—and after a friend who enjoyed it recently described it to me, I’m pretty sure I know exactly how it’s made.

So! I’ve made the following recipe four times in the last month, and it’s been a hit for me and guests every time. If you’re familiar with Roman pastas, it’ll be a cinch. If you’re not, it’s still very easy, very tasty, and simple to adjust for different tastes.
