El Maragato gourmet garbanzos (chick-peas) are from Castilla--León, and are grown along the medieval pilgrimage route El Camino de Santiago. They are radically superior to their bland distant cousins you find in the local supermarket. The exclusive source in the United States is La Tienda. When you soak these exquisite garbanzos overnight, you will be astonished to see how they swell into the most plump, tasty beans you have ever seen.
El Maragato is the premiere source of artisan quality beans in Spain -- if you choose these garbanzos you will immediately recognize that theirs is not an idle boast. A customer of ours wrote an enthusiastic letter extolling Maragato as the ultimate garbanzo.
In Spain, the popularity of Cocido de Garbanzos, Garbanzo Stew, rivals that of paella and gazpacho, and is the precursor of a French pot-au-feu. These premium beans are the perfect base for a pot of Cocido, brimming with authentic Spanish flavor.
Your glorious garbanzos will be stewing in a broth containing chorizo, and perhaps morcilla black sausage with onions. Each bag comes with an authentic recipe for the traditional Cocido de Garbanzos.
