I just made this tonight http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/tomato- ... -chickpeas A very sexy version of tomato soup, if you ask me. The recipe did not say how to prep the garlic so I chopped it for the soup and made thin slices for the roasted chickpeas. I think when I make it again I will sub diced Spanish chorizo for the ham which was a little list amongst the big flavors. Either that or leave it out. Mary |

That would work. I also suggest adding the smoked paprika to your tomato soup, it really brings it up a notch. The roasted chickpeas are amazing. I think they would be great as a salad topping, especially if you made your dressing with a bit of smoked paprika. Mary |

Thanks Mary, it might just be on the menu tonight if I can find a sub for the ham. |

Alina, If the ham is there for texture ... which it sounds like it is ... substitute sun-dried tomatoes. |

Thanks Josh. Missed the part below about Spanish chorizo which I always have. Mary, dumb question but is that regular or kosher salt? |

I used regular in the soup and sprinkled some fleur de sel over the chickpeas. I think I a. Going to make this when I host my cooking club on the 31st. That and the pumpkin spaetzlis. Mary |

Mary, That reminds me ... I gave in and bought a spaetzle maker (it was only $6 on Amazon). So, please tell me how the pumpkin ones turn out. |

Good job! I loved the pumpkin ones (made with sweet potatoes, go figure). The taste was subtle, I used Penzey's baking spice mix instead of the separate spices but they were similar. I thought they went very well with the game but they would probably also be nice in a gratin or as a side for salmon or maybe even a mushroom dish. The friends I invited for dinner went nuts over them and I will make them again. Probably next Friday for my cooking club, just need to figure out a main dish to go with them. And now that you will be making spaetzlis on a regular basis, try ramps when spring rolls around. Mary |

Mary, Oddly, nobody here seems to sell ramps except maybe one week at the expensive farmer's market. No good reason, they just aren't much of a "thing" in CA. The only ones I ate last year were from my MIL's garden. Kenji is in for a rude shock when spring rolls around. |
