Soka: Chickpea flour flatbreads
Chickpea flour flatbreads, known as Soka in France, are a simple and flavorful alternative to traditional pizza crust. The batter, made with chickpea flour, warm water, salt, and olive oil, is whisked together and cooked in a non-stick skillet until crispy. The flatbreads can be topped with a variety of ingredients, such as olive and roasted red pepper relish, spinach, grape, and feta salad, or arugula and prosciutto. They are a versatile and tasty option for a quick and easy meal.
