A staple now. Friends are fighting over every crumb. Sometimes I get a bite. Sometimes I make one when I’m home alone, just for me!!! So good. Thanks, CJ. You never fail.
In other parts of Italy they make it a little thinner and put it in a sandwich, called 5 and 5 because there's an equal amount of bread and farinata.. And they call it, Farinata, Torta di Ceci or Cecina. I just wanted to wave my knowledge.. Love it!
I found a RUclips Video on it from 11 years ago. Why do you have to put one RUclipsr before another? So unnecessary. Just be grateful we have wonderful people to bring us these recipes. Enough with the complaining.
This is one of the staple foods of Uruguay and Argentina (due to the large number of people of Italian descent in those countries). It is usually eaten with plenty of white pepper, and/or a white mustard sauce (made with white vinegar, beer, mustard, white pepper, and flour/cornstarch), and it's a common to pair it with pizza "a caballo" ("riding a horse"-style). Thanks Chef John as always for the awesome recipe and humor
Researched for chickpea flour recipe and reached here. I tried the recipe and it turned out sooooooooooooo yummy! Much tastier than I was expected, thank you much for the recipe!
Hi Chef,I made this tonight and ended up with several pieces of divine goodness. My hubby loved it and asked if I could make it again. This is a great recipe, and I added the rosemary as well as a little garlic and a pinch or two of "heat". FANTASTIC!!! The problem is, it's hard to describe the taste to anyone, so I'll just stick with "divine goodness'".
I very very rarely post comments on youtube but I found the commentary on this hillarious but informative. And superb recipe, I am trying it today... What a great guy!
Originally from Italy, called Farinatta in Uruguay we call it Fainá. You did an awesome job!! It’s so delicious by itself, but if you put it on top of a slice of cheese pizza, it’s AMAZING!!! Please try it!!
SUSANA H. Why would anyone put another type of bread over a pizza? Very baffling. Pizza is a dish by itself with more than enough calories. I feel that both the pizza and the bread would feel insulted.
@@seemaprasad6677 because that's the way people ate it in Uruguay and Argentina, at the same time We could consider very baffling and nasty all your curry garbage or the oil you use in your Indian skin which smells like a rotten egg, please if you don't have anything positive to comment, save your poison for yourself.
Point2 Homes You really are an extremely nasty person. It was an honest bafflement. The internet gives you license to sprew your nastiness as and when u feel like.
I like your hot pan method! Cold farinata makes a great salad crouton or casserole topping. Chickpea flour should be in everyone's pantry...so versatile and delicious.
I can't believe how delicious this is! Simple, very few ingredients, deliciso!! IF I were to add cheese (not needed, but I will), I'll reduce the salt.
YUM... we used to make this a lot when i was a little girl!! We ate it plain or sometimes with a tiny bit of drizzled butter with the black pepper on the top. When its left over we would reheat it in the morning with a drizzle of honey. ...Delizioso!!
"You're the Heidi Fleiss of your slice." Oh man that one made me lol - hit me just right. Addicted to these videos, Chef John. I've watched at least 150 of them. Just now after that Heidi Fleiss comment I thought I gotta know more about this guy than experiencing the disembodied voice. Watching "Get to Know Chef John from Food Wishes" on Hungry Nation. Keep up the good work!
Chef John, here in Argentina we call it Faina eat it in top of the pizza slices and it's delicious! Some places even do it with a little parsley and garlic. You must try it!
This is my first time to this channel. I love it. Love your lilting voice and your humor. Oh, and I loved the recipe also! Now I have to listen to some other recipes because it's Friday, been a long week, and I need a laugh. Thank you for the entertainment!
I was introduced to Chef John by a foodie pal. Everything we've made from this channel has turned out beautifully. Can't say that about too many cooking sites.
Great stuff! I bought some of this flour not long ago. They do some nice things with this in Italy and the South of France. Torto from Livorno and socca from Menton come to mind! Nice for the gluten intolerant and very good for the prostate.
Thank you for a gluten free recipe, Chef John! It is so hard to eat gluten free because things just don't taste as good, but this gives me hope that I can enjoy eating gluten free!
most of the foam is from dumping all the water in and whisking too much air into it, the lumps are gone quicker if you add enough water to make a paste and then add the rest of the water gradually. i found no difference from skimming the foam in the way of flatulence.
Crazy delicious!!! If you want to be awesome at a cocktail party, make this while everyone is standing around the kitchen. How often do you get to eat something right out of the oven?! There will be no left overs. Low carb and gluten free a definite plus
will sure try the recipe sometime this week...i have never enjoyed the commentary on any RUclips vid as much as this one !! you are too funny chef ! :)
I love you Chef John! Don't worry I'm married and love my husband dearly. I just love your voice, intonation and the good feelings it sparks. Thank you for the delicious recipes! I also have my channel, mostly in Portuguese, but if I had your lovely voice I wouldn't stop making videos! Thank you for the music... (Mama Mia's song. Your voice is like slow music)
Good observation. It is also called GRAM FLOUR here in France for English speakers. Greetings from Saint-Denis. I know French and Italian variations on this and it's ancient, Etruscan-like. A super hot oven and letting the mix bloom a bit is needed. Also skimming it, as he says. It is socca in the South of France and torto in Livorno, Italy. A little different and yet essentially the same thing. Pepper! Rosemary! Yeah.
I discovered chana flour today, and I've got some chickpea muffins in the over right now. Cant wait to taste them. I'll definitely try this recipe of yours soon. thanks for sharing ;-)
Hi, congratulations for the recipe! Here in southamerica that dish is called "fainá", and is on every restaurant menu. We usually put it over a pizza slide and that's "pizza a caballo" (riding pizza!)
gram flour, besan flour if there's an indian grocer nearby... \o/ YAY \o/ you finally made it and isn't it just WONDERFUL! i usually make mine with onion and asparagus but it's good with just onion too. in france it's called socca. since i can't eat eggs it's a regular staple in my house. \o/
JANE’S TRUE STORY: So…the first time I made this, everything went wrong. I realized after I mixed up the batter that I had accidentally used 2 cups of chickpea flour instead of 1½ cups. D’oh! ¶ Next, I discovered that my rosemary plant had died. D’oh! ¶ Instead of of using ½ teaspoon fresh minced rosemary, I substituted about a ½ teaspoon none-too-fresh dried, rosemary powder, which is all I had. Again, I say “D’oh!” ¶ Because I had some leftover from another recipe, I also tossed 1 teaspoon of fresh lemon zest. Then, while I was preheating the oven, an internal alarm sounded, the heat shut off, and a notice appeared on the digital screen, “Call for Service.” Double D’oh! ¶ Since I had the batter all ready to go, I heated up the cast iron skillet on the stovetop, added the oil and the batter, covered it, lowered the heat to medium, and cooked for about 7 minutes. I should have lowered the heat to low, or even turned it off, because, of course, the bottom burned. Double-damned D’oh! ¶ I used two spatulas to flip it over, completely botching the job, covered it, tuned off the heat, and let it sit for a few minutes to cook through. Despite eating around the burned bottom, the-shall we say “blackened”-aroma permeated the farinata. D’OH! D’OH! DIRTY DAMNED DOUBLE D’OH!! ¶ It wasn’t absolutely terrible, but it certainly wasn’t what I was shooting for. By the way, the lemon zest, though not traditional, worked well with the rosemary and freSH-ly ground black pepper. ¶ Chef John, please say a novena for me that the next time I try making farinata that I don’t meet with the same sh*t show.
You really do sell this. I'm almost attempted to try it but I know my taste buds detest garbanzo beans and garbanzo bean flour. What a wonderful dish for those who like it though. I'm envious.
Can you grind the beans yourself, if you have some on hand? Can you add a pinch baking powder for the gas? My son gets pains from beans beans, these aren't soaked first, they grind them dry so ouch, better skim it off,
In Argentina we call it Fainá, and is a side dish for Pizza... it´s actually a 'top-dish', as we usually lay a slice on top of a pizza slice and eat both together. Give it a try!
Hi Chef John. I love your recipes. Your proof that you don't have to be a woman to be a good cook. Your macaroni and cheese recipe is my staple know. Only thing is I add earthworms. That's right earthworms. It's real good and high in protein. Brought it to my office Thanksgiving party last year. Everyone freaked and my boss told me not to ever bring anything into the office again, but I like it. I've gained 70 pounds. Hope all is well with you. I also like your fried chicken.
made this for my dinner tonight and had some ratatouille along side. It was so tasty. But i think my frying pan was too small as it was still quite squidgy on the inside. Is that how it should be? So tasty i ate the whole thing! Great vegan dish to add to my repertoire :) xxx
There is an Indian dish like this made with potatoes added to the mix - I forget the name, but my family loves them...they affectionately call them "Camel Patties" because they are small flat, round biscuit like disks. Chickpea flour and Potatoes with just a few Indian spices - amazingly good. I'm sure this is going to be as awesome as everything else you've taught me to make thus far - I'm going to have to get a treadmill!
Looking through all my subscriptions thinking... I don't want to watch that, I don't want to watch that, I don't want to watch that..... OH, Chief John made a new video O.O ?? Totally watching that !!
Next time you could try making some panelle with garbanzo flour: make a polenta with garbanzo flour, and, once cold, make game card size slices and deep fry! :D For flavouring add pepper, and parsley in the polenta stage. Enjoy!!!!

Garbanzo bean flour aka chickpea flour is used a lot in Indian cooking and so can also be found in Indian grocers labeled as besan. :-)
I was looking for this comment.
Exactly and so cheap too. It be soooooo expensive in the health food shops
Excellent info!! Thanks!!

You can also get the flour at an indian grocer. They call it Besan flour and I'm sure it is more affordable than other sources. Just FYI.
Besan is not same as Chickpeas

Okay. My bad

The description about the size of the slices based on geography had me howling!!
This recipe is right up my alley. I love chickpeas so much.
Fantastic. Added caramelized onions and a dash of hing to counter flatulence.
Love john's recipes. One itaian lady tops hers with carmelized onions. Yum! I will try this as a GF pizza.

Oh I top this bad boy! Hummus, homemade pesto, or olives and tomatoes....all ways work 👌🏾
Chef John, you are my favorite.
Just tried this recipe and loved it. It turned out crispy and tasty, so much better than a similar recipe I tried before.
Every recipe of yours has worked out. Your commentary makes me laugh while I learn. Great combo. Farinata for supper tonight.
I can't believe how delicious this is! Simple, very few ingredients, deliciso!! IF I were to add cheese (not needed, but I will), I'll reduce the salt.

Chef Jhon, in Argentina we call it "Fainá", and it's sold in almost every "pizzeria". We use to eat it with a pizza in top of it, you should try that!
i like the final ending shot. it's different from your usual ending shots and more artistic. love it!

"make it more artsy, less fartsy." motto of my life. lol

WOW this is not only vegan (so it's good for me too) but it's a delicious italian recipe :) Love you Chef John :) Thank you so much !!!!
most of the foam is from dumping all the water in and whisking too much air into it, the lumps are gone quicker if you add enough water to make a paste and then add the rest of the water gradually. i found no difference from skimming the foam in the way of flatulence.
Yes I feel you
“The Heidi Fleiss of your slice” made me cackle 😂😂😂

Even if i know i will never make this dish, i cant help but watch your videos anyway
I love out humour you always make me Smile thanks
One question please. I sprout my garbanzo beans, can I make it with them?
Yes
Making it right now :). Not telling anyone what it is but simply telling them it's a Chef John recipe!!! They'll eat it up!
That's an interesting tip about the foam!! 👍😏
You have coined a new phrase---"noisy recipe". Great.I like that.
Awesome that you didn’t use that plastic wrap...! Keep loving the earth ❤️🌎
Oh gosh looks so good....I will try it tomorrow.....thanx a lot....
Looks delightful!! Easy an original, must give it a try, thanks for the idea Chef John!
We call this "fainá" in Argentina, and we eat slices of pizza and this together (in the same bite!). :)
I'd like to learn how to make it!! :)
Really like this dish i would have it with a little onion marmalade

Species710 Have you ever eaten Pakoras. You will fall in love with garbanzo bean flour. Google it and make it or befriend an Indian.
Rosemary is a traditional addition to Tuscan version of farinata, called "cecina".

Does it have to go in the oven, or can it cook in the frying pan, on the stove? I want to add garlic, hot peppers and spibach..........
