Aaargh.

So I tried this cecina recipe I found online.

1 cup chickpea flour, 2 cups warm water, some olive oil, salt and pepper. Totally no biggie, right?

WRONG. I have no idea what kind of chickpea flour he's using, but this does not work.

I hunted around further (after adding a BUNCH more chickpea flour), and I think someone read a recipe in metric (500 mL warm water, 200 GRAMS of chickpea flour) and thought that a mL and a g were the same thing.

The first batch is currently cooking. We'll see how it does.

That was confusing!

In Spanish, "cecina" means dried salted meat. I had to Google the other meaning to figure out what you were talking about.

I'm betting it's not pronounced chetcheenah, though. :P
