He asked why we hadn't made it before and I was honest: chickpea flour tastes like robot ass. Seriously, bean flours suck because they're pretty much raw and most dishes don't cook them completely.
So I had a wonderful idea--mix the batter and let it sit overnight. It will ferment slightly and maybe, just maybe, soak enough to not taste like metallic dung. Mix in some roasted garlic and some thyme and it might just be tasty.
It was excellent. We had socca for a few nights. Tonight, he made it with fresh batter. Edible, but very reminiscent of sucking on poorly machined and discarded gears. We'll keep the food in our repertoire, but the batter must be soaked.
