About Faina
Faina, also known as farinata, is a traditional dish from Ligurian cuisine that has gained popularity across Mediterranean regions and South America, particularly in Uruguay and Argentina. Made primarily from chickpea flour, water, olive oil, and a pinch of salt, this savory flatbread is gluten-free and packed with plant-based protein and fiber, making it a nutritious option for those seeking healthier alternatives to wheat-based products. Rich in vitamins and minerals like folate, iron, and magnesium, faina supports energy levels and overall health. Its simplicity also makes it suitable for vegan and vegetarian diets. However, due to its olive oil content, it can be calorie-dense, so portion control is advised for those watching their intake. Traditionally baked in a wood-fired oven, its crispy edges and soft interior make it a versatile accompaniment or snack that celebrates flavorful, wholesome ingredients.
