May 24, 2021 is TikTok Rigatoni Pasta Day! Who said so? A kid named jimmyrules32, and it’s become a viral meme — much like Adrian’s Kickback in Huntington Beach. Jimmy is so passionate about this day that he has reminded everyone about it since January 2020!

This TikTok Rigatoni Pasta recipe is my homage to this special day, made with diced onions, garlic, tomato paste, heavy cream, vodka and some grated Parmesan. I like to give it a kick with a nice helping of red pepper chili flakes, but you can use less if you like!
If you decide to make this recipe, feel free to use other types of pasta if you don’t have rigatoni on hand. You can also omit the vodka from the recipe and it will still be quite delicious.
