In a large saucepan, combine 3 tbsp oil, pine nuts, Aleppo pepper, cinnamon and 1 tsp salt. Heat over medium-low, stirring occasionally, until bubbling, 2 to 3 minutes. Immediately transfer to a small bowl, then return the cinnamon stick to the saucepan.To the saucepan, add the chickpeas, baking soda, garlic, 1 tsp salt and 4 cups water. Boil over high, then reduce to medium and cook, uncovered and stirring occasionally, until the chickpeas are tender and the skins begin to separate, 7 to 10 minutes. Measure ¼ cup of the cooking liquid into a medium bowl, then drain the chickpeas in a colander, shaking to remove as much water as possible.Remove and discard the cinnamon stick. Transfer the garlic and ½ cup of the chickpeas to the bowl with the cooking water, then add the remaining 3 tbsp oil. Using a fork, mash until smooth. Stir in the tahini, lemon juice, 1 tsp salt and ½ tsp black pepper, then fold in the remaining whole chickpeas. Taste and season with salt and black pepper. Transfer to a serving bowl and top with the scallions. Drizzle with the spiced oil-nut mixture and additional olive oil.Excerpted from Milk Street: Tuesday Nights Mediterranean.
