Mod de preparare

Pas cu pas

1
In a large bowl, whisk together the chickpea flour and salt.
Aproximativ 1 min.
2
Gradually add the water to the flour mixture, whisking constantly to prevent lumps, until a smooth, thin batter forms.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Ensure the batter is completely smooth before resting.
3
Stir in the batter olive oil.
4
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and let it rest at room temperature for at least 2 hours, or up to 4 hours.
Aproximativ 2 ore
Nota bucătarului: Resting allows the flour to fully hydrate, resulting in a better texture.
5
Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
Aproximativ 15 min.
Nota bucătarului: Ensure the oven is fully preheated before baking.
6
Lightly grease a 28-30 cm (11-12 inch) round baking pan or cast-iron skillet with the pan olive oil.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: A well-greased pan prevents sticking and helps create a crispy crust.
7
Place the greased pan in the preheated oven for 5 minutes to heat up.
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: Heating the pan helps achieve a crispier bottom crust.
8
Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven.
Nota bucătarului: Use oven mitts as the pan will be very hot.
9
Give the rested batter a final whisk, then pour it into the hot pan.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: The batter should be thin, about 3-5 mm thick.
10
If using, sprinkle black pepper and rosemary evenly over the top of the batter.
11
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cecina is golden brown, firm to the touch, and the edges are crispy.
Aproximativ 25 min.
Nota bucătarului: Baking time may vary depending on your oven and pan thickness.
12
Remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for a few minutes.
Aproximativ 5 min.
13
Slice into wedges or squares and serve warm.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Cecina is best enjoyed fresh and warm.
