Odd colored food is an easy signal that you are seeing an alien planet. The newest Star Wars TV series, Andor, had a scene in which we saw blue noodles. Andrew Rea of Binging with Babish noticed, and set out to recreate those noodles at home. The first recipe is the easy one in which he boils noodles in water infused with butterfly pea flower extract. Then he made noodles with the extract. The first attempt is a mess, but then he shows us a successful blue noodle recipe. It seems perfect with onions and garlic, but I have to wonder whether these noodles would change color if a citrus sauce were introduced, since butterfly pea flower has the features of a litmus test. That's an experiment for another day. (via Geeks Are Sexy)

Just in time for the new Avatar movie coming out next month.
I haven't had blue noodles. But I've had the squid/octopus ink black/blue pasta that sometimes becomes popular with trendy restaurants. I like the look of these lighter blue noodles.
Alfred Hitchcock had heard that blue is not often found in nature, and as a result made a joke meal for a bunch of his friends where everything was died blue, including the mash potatoes.
