CHEF'S NOTES
In the markets of Nice, local producers hawk their products in the local “Nissart” dialect. Socca sellers transport their large flat rounds, made from chick pea flour, that look like enormous browned pancakes, in two-wheeled carts topped with a big zinc box that keeps the socca warm. In little cafés throughout the city, slices of socca are eaten at wooden tables with a glass of the chilled local rosé wine.
In Italy, just over the border from the southern French city of Menton, socca is extremely popular and is called “picha.” It’s a traditional mid-morning snack for workers, and a common street food for strollers at any time of the day.
