Spanish Lentil Stew (Lentejas)

Today is the first full day of Fall, which means it's officially Lentejas season! Finding a recipe that evokes all the feels wasn't easy. But, per usual, José Andrés has come so close. This recipe - plus a bay leaf added to the pot, maybe less paprika, and a drizzle of EEVO before serving - is pretty much the lentejas of my childhood. Of course, using Pardina lentils is a must.
