How to make Socca:
- Mix 1 cup chickpea flour, 1 cup water, 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil + 1/2 tsp salt. Let sit for 30 minutes.
- Halfway through that time, turn on broiler. Set a large cast iron pan in the oven for the last 5 minutes.
- Remove the hot pan after 5 minutes + use 1/2 Tbsp olive oil to coat it, turning the pan so the oil is spread all across it and a little on the sides.
- Add the chickpea batter and set it in the oven.
- Cook for 5-8 minutes, until it starts to get brown spots in the middle, then remove. Let cool for a minutes, then slice into wedges and serve.

Ways to eat Socca:
- Plain – best when fresh from the oven.
- Add other seasonings into the batter for a twist. (Try: curry, basil + garlic, French herbs, etc.)
- Add layers of veggies on top and eat like an open-faced crepe / thin sandwich.
- With a bowl of soup.
- Use to scoop up sautéed veggies.
- Dip in marinara sauce.
- Spread with pesto.
- With a side of olives, pecorino + drizzle of honey.
- As a snack instead of crackers, pretzels, cookies, etc.
- Drizzled with melted dark chocolate + fresh berries.
Enjoy 🙂
