    Ingredients
     

    • 1 pound dry garbanzo beans soaked overnight
    • 1 pound of pork hocks cut into small pieces
    • 8 of cups water
    • 1 onion diced
    • 4 garlic cloves
    • 4 scallions diced
    • 1 cup of fresh diced tomatoes
    • ½ teaspoon achiote powder
    • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
    • 2 carrots peeled and sliced
    • 2 potatoes peeled and diced
    • Salt and pepper to taste

    Mamita's always said, "A good cook doesn't need to follow a recipe to make a good dish. To be a good cook you just have to love food, have good taste buds, and don't be afraid of the kitchen". When I asked her for a recipe the answer was always to "Add a pinch of cumin, some fresh cilantro, about two cups of beans, a lot of onions, spices and garlic, or add some achiote for color. She never gave me the exact recipe, or amounts of ingredients, and that is the way I learned to cook.

    Garbanzos con Paticas de Cerdo is a traditional Colombian dish that Mamita made all the time. She never gave anyone the exact recipe, so here is my version of her Chickpeas and Pork Feet Stew.

    Buen provecho!

      My mother was like that too. But there were a few recipes I really wanted her to write down when I made a family cookbook years ago. So I stood in the kitchen with her and wrote things down! My sister and still regret a few we never got down on paper.
      This looks like a tasty dinner, Erica.

      And this is how I love to eat! Your mother taught you well. Growing up, when we wanted old Italian recipes, the answer was always "come watch me cook."

      Many of us come from families where nothing was written down. While we did learn to cook with very general instructions I wonder what was lost because there were no formal instructions. This looks like a wonderful meal. It has wonderful color. I hope you have a great day. Blessings...Mary
