10-inch cast-iron pan

Spatula

Cutting board

Flatbread Ingredients

160 grams chickpea flour

40 grams fine cornmeal or corn flour

430 grams water

3 grams salt

1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Mix together the flours, water, salt, cumin, and 3 tablespoons of the olive oil. Let the batter rest for at least 2 hours, covered, at room temperature, or overnight in the refrigerator.

Heat the cast-iron pan on a high flame, drizzling in the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, so that it covers the whole surface. Just as it begins to smoke, pour in enough batter to fill the pan. Swirl the batter so it fills the pan to the edges, and turn down the flame to medium.

After 2 minutes check the underside with a spatula to see if it’s brown. When it is, carefully flip the socca over and cook the remaining side for about 1 minute.

Slide the socca onto a cutting board, drizzle with high-quality extra virgin olive oil, and cut it into 4 or 8 pieces. Eat immediately.
