Exclusive Recipe from Spain…on the Road Again (courtesy of www.spainontheroadagain.com)
Gypsy Potage (Serves 6)

• Two 14-ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
• 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 garlic cloves, peeled
• 1/2 large Spanish onion, cut into small dice
• Scant 1 cup tomato puree
• 2 tablespoons sweet pimentón (Spanish smoked paprika)
• Pinch of saffron threads
• 1 pound baby spinach
• 2 tablespoons finely chopped Italian parsley
• 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
• 1 1/2 pounds skin-on, boneless bacalao (salt cod), soaked in water for 3 days (change the water twice a day)
• 5 cups water

Put the chickpeas into a large heavy pot, add 2 cups cold water, and bring to a simmer. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the garlic cloves and cook until they are just beginning to color. Add 1 garlic clove to the chickpeas, and reserve the other. Add the onions to the skillet and cook until softened and beginning to brown, about 10 minutes. Add the tomato puree and pimentón and cook for about 5 minutes, until the tomato puree is slightly reduced. Add the onion mixture to the chickpeas (add a bit of the chickpea liquid to the skillet to help get all the onion and tomato mixture—don't waste a bit!), then add the saffron. Add the spinach, stirring until it wilts. Using a mortar and pestle, mash the reserved garlic clove, the parsley, and cumin to a paste. Add the paste to the soup, along with the bacalao, breaking it into large pieces. Add the remaining 3 cups water, bring to a rolling boil and cook for 10 minutes. Taste for salt and add it if necessary, then turn off the heat, cover, and let stand for about 10 minutes before serving.
