(If desired, fully soaked cod may be refrigerated, drained and wrapped in plastic for up to 2 days.) Also put chickpeas in a bowl and cover with cold water by 2 inches. Leave to soak 8 hours or overnight.
• The next day, drain cod, chop it into 1-inch chunks, put it in a bowl and set aside. Put chickpeas and soaking water in a large pot over high heat. Add clove-stuck onion and bay leaf and bring to a boil. Skim foam, turn down heat and simmer for about 45 minutes, until tender. Halfway through cooking, add 2 teaspoons salt. Turn off heat and leave chickpeas in their broth until ready to use. (Chickpeas may be cooked several hours ahead or even a day in advance if desired.)
• Make the stew: In a heavy soup pot, warm olive oil over high heat. Add diced onion and let sizzle, then reduce heat and cook until softened, stirring, about 10 minutes. Stir in garlic, saffron, pimentón and tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes. Season mixture with salt and pepper. Add wine and bring to a brisk simmer. Drain chickpeas, reserving 6 cups of the broth. Add the broth and potatoes to the pot, cover and cook until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.

• To make the tomatoes, preheat oven to 200 degrees. Combine rosemary and orange oils in a small bowl. Using a pastry brush, coat both sides of the tomato halves lightly with oil mixture. Place skin-side down on a large baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
• Bake the tomatoes until they shrink to about 1/4 of their original size, about 4 to 6 hours; they should remain soft and juicy. Let tomatoes cool on the baking sheet. Cut them in half crosswise and set aside.
• To make the stew, heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, carrots and celery. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, stirring often, for 10 minutes. Stir in the wine, water, bay leaf and rosemary. Add the potato slices. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 25 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and jalapeno and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Add the cod and simmer just until cooked through, about 3 minutes. Divide among 4 bowls and serve.

Add the fire-roasted tomatoes, chicken stock, and roasted red peppers, bring up to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes. You want the soup to be at a gentle simmer before you add the fish so, if necessary, turn the heat down a little. Add the cod. Gently simmer for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through. Finish the soup with the parsley, taste for seasoning, and serve.
