Best Sopa De Garbanzos Chick Pea Soup Recipes
SOPA DE GARBANZOS - CHICKPEA SOUP
When my mom and I were cleaning out one of her kitchen cabinets, we found a box of recipes that she had clipped from newspapers and magazines. This one came from an article in the Houston Post (no longer in circulation), October 1989. The article was about traditional Mexican soup dishes and contained several wonderful and authentic recipes. This filling soup can be made vegetarian by using vegetable stock and omitting the bacon.

SOPA DE GARBANZOS (CHICK PEA SOUP)
My husband's favorite way to flavor beans is with pigs' feet. I kid you not. Actually, they flavor the beans very well. He eats the meat, I do not. We use them with kidney beans always. This recipe is translated from "Cocina Criolla" by Carmen Aboy Valldejuli, originally published in 1954 in Spanish. My husband calls it the Puerto Rican Cookbook. Times do not include overnight soaking of the beans. NOTE: If using salted pigs feet, they should also be soaked overnight, in a separate bowl (and rinsed and drained)
