Farinata (Script error: No such module "IPA".), socca (Script error: No such module "IPA".), farinata di ceci, torta di ceci, fainé, fainá, cecìna or cade is a type of thin, unleavened pancake or crêpe made from chickpea flour.
Farinata is considered a staple food on the northwest Mediterranean coast. In Liguria it is named farinata, in Nice socca and in Toulon cade.
It is also a speciality of Oran, Algeria, where it was introduced under French rule and known as calentica, and in the cities of Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Montevideo, Uruguay, where it is known as fainá and eaten with pizza.
It is usually both vegan and gluten-free.[1]
Names
In standard Italian, the dish is called farinata ('made of flour'), while in Ligurian, specifically in the Genoese dialect, it goes by the name of fainâ (Script error: No such module "IPA".); in Carrara and in Massa it is called calda calda (Template:Literally), in the rest of Tuscany cecina or torta di ceci[1] (Template:Literally) and in Sardinia fainé.
In Nice and the Alpes-Maritimes it is called socca, and in the Var, especially in Toulon, it is known as cade, from Occitan pascade, as it was traditionally served during Easter (Pascas in Occitan).[2]
In Argentina and Uruguay it is massively popular and is called fainá.
History
The origin of the dish is unknown. One legend says it was invented by a group of Roman soldiers who roasted chickpea-flour on a shield.[3] Farinata is a contemporary street food in Liguria.[4]
Cooking method
Farinata is made by stirring chickpea flour into a mixture of water and olive oil to form a loose batter,[5] pouring it into a pan to make a pancake typically 4 mm thick, and cooking it for a few minutes, traditionally in an open oven in a tin-plated copper baking-pan. It may be seasoned with fresh rosemary, pepper and sea salt. Traditionally farinata is cut into irregularly shaped triangular slices, and eaten (with no toppings) on small plates with optional black pepper. Elsewhere in Italy—traditionally in Tuscany, where it is called cecina (from the Italian word for 'chickpeas', ceci)—it is served stuffed into small focaccia (mainly in Pisa) or between two slices of bread, as it is traditional in Livorno. In Carrara it is also eaten in a small focaccia filled with a slice of pizza and farinata, this combination is known as Gnam. It is sold in pizzerias and bakeries.
French variations
Socca is a dish of southeastern French cuisine, particularly in and around the city of Nice.[6] It is the same as farinata, although some say the texture is a bit different. It may be baked on a tinned copper plate more than a meter in diameter. Around Toulon and Marseille, farinata can be found under the name cade. This version is thicker with a crunchy surface.

In Uruguay el fainá, called la fainá in Argentina, is considered a traditional dish, brought by immigrants in 1915. 27th August has been called "Fainá Day". Fainá is optionally served de orillo or del medio, which means from the border and from the center, because slightly irregular baking is made from to the meniscus of the liquid dough, making it thicker at the center, resulting different textures, more creamy or more crispy akin to the choice.[9]
