I came across this recipe while looking for interesting things to do with blue cornmeal. Athough this is time consuming I think it looks interesting and fun to make. Recipe source: Bon Appetit (December 1987)

Steps:
- To make the fettuccine: mix the all purpose flour (1 cup plus 1 1/2 tablespoons), blue cornmeal, semolina, salt , cumin and cayenne in a large bowl. Make a well in the center of the ingredients and add eggs, and blend together with a fork, until all the flour is incorporated. Knead douh on a lightly floured board until smooth (4-6 minutes), kneading in additional flour if sticky. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and let rest 30 minutes.
- Cut dough into six pieces. Working with one piece at a time (keeping the rest covered), fold piece into thirds. Using a pasta machine at it's widest setting, run dough through several times until dough is smooth and velvety, flolding dough before each run and dusting with flour if sticky. Repeat narrowing rollers after each run until pasta is 1/16th inch thich, dusting with flour if necesary. Hang dough sheet on drying rack or place on kitchen rack to dry. Repeat with remaining pieces of dough until all is completed. Set aside until dough sheets look leathery and edges begin to curl (10-30 minutes). ***Pasta must be cut at this point or it will be too brittle to work with.***.
- Run dough sheets through the fettuccine blades of pasta machine (or cut by hand into 1/4-inch wide strips). Arrange pasta on towel.
- To make sauce: boil cream in a large saucepan until reduced to 1 1/3 cups. Cook chorizo and jalapeno in a large skillet over medium heat until brown, crumbling the chroizo with a fork (10 minutes). Stir in cream, cilantro and cayenne and season with salt.
- In a large pot, add pasta to a large amount of rapidly boiling water, stirring to prevent sticking. Cook until tender (4-5 minutes). Drain. Add pasta to cream sauce and toss to heat through.

AMY'S CILANTRO CREAM SAUCE
I just love the sound of the blend of garlic, cumin and lime with the cilantro in this Cilantro Cream Sauce recipe. When I came across it on the Allrecipes website and read some of the hundred or so rave reviews that had been written, I checked the Zaar recipes, which all sounded quite different again from this one and, I thought, well there are probably some other Zaar members who would also like to try this recipe. Being timid around spicy flavours, I'll be leaving those out - whereas some chefs will I know be increasing their heat - but the rest of the flavour combinations sound really tempting. I was also struck by the versatility offered by this recipe, something that is also true of the other Zaar recipes for Cilantro Sauce, some of which I've saved and will also be trying. I particularly liked the sound of Merlot's Hazelnut & Cilantro Pasta Sauce #31361. Amy's Cilantro Cream Sauce can be used as a dip, as a sauce for grilled fish, chicken or steamed vegetables, as a salad dressing, folded through mashed potatoes or as a pasta sauce. Since I haven't yet made this, I've posted it exactly as I found it on the Allrecipes website. Thank you, Amy. Some reviewers had made it with low fat cheese and cream with excellent results, some added chopped green onions and some used fresh garlic instead of garlic powder. I'll be looking for an alternative to the tomatillo salsa. Any suggestions are most welcome. I've estimated the preparation time to be 5-10 minutes.
