SPICY CHORIZO PASTA
Macaroni and chorizo is classic Spanish comfort food. While iterations abound, it typically starts by frying smoked chorizo with a little onion, adding canned or fresh tomato and maybe some oregano, then letting it simmer into a thick tomato sauce. It's often topped with cheese and baked like a mac and cheese. Instead of fresh tomatoes, this recipe uses highly concentrated tomato paste, which is made by cooking down tomatoes for ages so you don't have to. The paste fries in the chorizo's rendered drippings for a very fast, silky, smoky and spicy sauce. When shopping for this recipe, look for Spanish chorizo, a shelf-stable sausage usually found near salami and other cured meats in the grocery store. Mexican chorizo is sold fresh and is made with different chiles and spices.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook, according to package directions, until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta.
- Meanwhile, in a large Dutch oven, heat the olive oil and chorizo over medium-high. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chorizo is crisp and brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn off the heat and use a slotted spoon to transfer the chorizo to a plate.
- Return the pot to medium heat and add the tomato paste and garlic. Cook, stirring, until the tomato paste is caramelized and a shade darker, 3 to 5 minutes, covering the pan if the splattering is wild. Add the red-pepper flakes and a few grinds of black pepper, then remove from heat.
- Add the cooked pasta and 1/2 cup of the reserved pasta water to the tomato mixture. Return the pot to the medium-high heat, and stir vigorously until the pasta is well coated. Add more pasta water until the sauce is glossy. Stir in the chorizo and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Steps:
- Bring broth, water, wine, saffron, and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a boil in a small saucepan, then reduce heat and keep at a bare simmer.
- Heat oil in a 5- to 6-quart heavy pot over medium-high heat until it shimmers, then sauté garlic until pale golden, about 30 seconds. Transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. Add chorizo and sauté until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer with slotted spoon to paper towels with garlic. Add butter to pot and sauté onion until golden, about 5 minutes, then add pasta and sauté, breaking up fideos with a wooden spoon, until golden, about 4 minutes. Add broth mixture and cook, covered, until all liquid is absorbed, about 6 minutes. Stir in chickpeas, chorizo, garlic, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve pasta sprinkled with almonds and drizzled with oil.
PASTA CHORIZO
Steps:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, then add the oil. Add the shallots and minced garlic and sauté, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the whole garlic cloves and deglaze the pan with the wine. Add the Cooked Chorizo and chicken stock.
- Let the mixture simmer until reduced slightly. Add the Tomato Sauce and heavy cream and simmer 2 to 3 minutes more. Add the pasta and stir until well coated and heated through. If the pasta becomes dry, add a splash of stock. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Remove the pan from the heat and swirl in the butter until combined. Divide the pasta between 2 bowls. To finish the dish, top with the mozzarella and pesto.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a sheet pan.
- Place the pork in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, thoroughly mix the oregano, smoked paprika, Spanish paprika, cumin, cinnamon, cayenne (if using), 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Add the spice mixture to the pork, then add the garlic, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce and 1/4 cup water and thoroughly mix.
- Spread out the chorizo on the prepared sheet pan and bake until just cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes. Using a spatula, form crumbles by chopping and stirring. Add more spice or salt to taste. Let cool completely before use.
- Heat a 4-quart saucepan over medium-high heat, then add the oil. Add the onions, basil and oregano and stir until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, stir for 1 minute, then deglaze with the wine. Add the tomatoes, vinegar, sugar and red pepper flakes.
- Bring to a simmer, stirring, then reduce the heat to low. Add the tomato paste and stir until well combined. Season with salt and pepper and simmer for 20 minutes. Taste for seasoning, then lightly blend with an immersion blender. Do not puree.
- Combine the flour, egg yolks, oil, 1/4 cup water and 2 1/2 teaspoons salt in a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment. Mix on low speed until the dough pulls away from the sides of bowl. Turn the dough out onto the counter and knead to form a uniform ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature for 1 hour (or overnight in the refrigerator).
- When the dough is ready, bring 1 to 2 gallons of salted water to a boil.
- Meanwhile, set up your pasta machine, unwrap the dough and dust with flour. Cut the dough in half and rewrap the half you're not using.
- Flatten the dough enough to fit into the roller. Open the pasta roller to widest setting (#1). Pass the dough through the roller, dusting with flour as needed now and as you continue to roll out the dough to prevent sticking. Narrow the roller to the #2 setting and pass the dough through. Continue to the #4 setting, then the #5 setting. Trim the ends and cut into 12-inch sheets. Repeat the process with the remaining dough half.
- Dust the finished sheets with flour, then fold into thirds. Keep the folded sheets as straight as possible and, using a sharp knife, cut into 1/4-inch strands to form tagliatelle. Dust the pasta with flour if needed to prevent sticking.
- Blanch the pasta in the boiling water until it floats, about 4 minutes. (The pasta will be cooked lightly in the chorizo tomato sauce, so do not overcook it during the blanching phase. No one likes mushy pasta.) Drain and transfer to an ice bath to slow the heating. Drain well and toss with oil. Divide into nine 6.5-ounce portions.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat.
- Add the onion and cook for about 5 minutes, or until it softens.
- Add the garlic and saute for a further 5 minutes-don't allow to burn.
- Add the sliced chorizo, and cook for a couple of minutes, until the fat starts to run.
- Now add the meat and brown really well.
- I've learned to do this (thanks Evelyn/Athens) over about 15 minutes to get a really good flavour, so be patient.
- At this stage, I drain all the fat and oil off that I can.
- Pour in the wine, and cook for a couple of minutes, then add the tomato paste, and cook a couple of minutes more.
- Add the chopped tomatoes, water, herbs, mixed spice and celery salt and bring to the boil.
- Reduce to a simmer, and cook gently for about 2 hours uncovered, stirring occasionally and making sure not too much water has evaporated or that the dish is sticking.
- Stir through the parsley before serving over pasta of your choice.
