    Oh wow, feeling very conscious about my simple lunch meal prepping now haha. How well does a farinata keep during the week?

    This looks absolutely incredible! Thank you so much for sharing! I can’t wait to look up and learn what a farinata is, I have never heard of this before

      thank you! its is essentially the same batter as socca, but this week i went for an italian theme so i poured it thick and called it farinata. it is usually described as chickpea pancake or flatbread. you have to let the batter sit for a few hours for the chickpea flour to hydrate, and it oddly pours out quite thin, but 30-40 minutes in the oven have it coming out solid enough to slice.

      thanks! i work four ten-hour days, and i make enough for my wife to eat for lunch as well, so i always plan for 8 servings. sometimes i come up short, but close enough where at the worst case i can buy a piece of bread to make it filling.

          so this was all done at the same time as that nights dinner (tofu cauliflower curry) and two prepped weeknight dinners (red lentil curry) for two adults and a pre-schooler, all of which took about 4 hours with breaks to eat dinner, wash a few dishes, help with a mini tantrum, read a bedtime story, and use the bathroom, so maybe 1.5-ish hours just for the lunches (not including the 3 hours hydration time for the farinata batter).

      i do like radicchio normally, but any strong food can usually be softened by soaking it in water for a bit, which is also how i take the bite out of red onion for people who like it less pungent.
