So this blog started as a project for this class im taking called Storia delle cose, and in this class we were assigned to objects a thing to eat and a thing for eating, the 2 objects i was assigned were our little friend the chickpea and the grill. this 2 guys were my friends this semester and together we discovered a lot of things about them.
One of the first things we did was look for our object and thing to eat names in other languages, this was extremely interesting because as an exchange student living in Torino, when i first was assigned the objects i didn't even knew what they meant.
we also talked about the mythologies around those objects, i knew that in mexico the use of the chickpea in the kitchen is really common, but i didn't knew about the use in other parts of the world,
not only in the kitchen (witch by the way i have an awesome recipie here) but also in music, in books, art and magazines. we even did a research about the nutritional facts, the proces of production and the different types that exist!! i even had a little experience with it where i wrote a little ode to the chickpea.
anyways, this blog was useful, not only to know more about this little guy, but also understand and to put in action the action of research.
this is the end my friends, but if you ever want to learn a bit more about the chickpeas and the grills you can always have a look at my blog :D
