We love chickpeas so this recipe from Chef April Bloomfield of the Spotted Pig quot;gastro-pubquot; in Greenwich, Manhattan soon became one of our favorites.
I love this soup. I like to have the vegetables cut medium it makes is hardier. But if you prefer smooth you can always chop smaller or puree. I also omit the bay leaf because I don't like bay leaf. I also use a ham hock from left over Easter or Christmas dinner.
This recipe is from the America's Test Kitchen slow cooker episode. I'm not a fan of slow cookers, but this Beef Burgundy is soooo delicious and full of rich flavors you would never guess that it was made in a slow cooker, definitely a keeper!
This is an adaption of the usual veal Schnitzel that makes it more affordable in my house. I think that it's just as good and it doesn't take all that long either. By all means use fresh herbs if you have them but I have to use dried because I can't grow them.
