Thanks for another great newsletter, Nik. Your story about packing reminded me of how I travelled from India to the US 22 years ago, with my trusty prestige pressure cooker and my sumeet mixie in my suitcase.

I've seen many recipes with the chickpea/ pasta combination but mixing beans and pasta has always seemed weird to me. Is there anything you can say that would nudge me to try? Safe travels -- hope you have a great trip!

I think pasta and chickpeas can be odd from a texture standpoint so I try to work in flavors that compliment both the pasta and chickpeas. I find smokier and bolder flavors work better in this combination like I use in the ham and chickpea soup.
