/Sounds like "fye" + "NAH" (as in "nacho")/
A thin chickpea-flour flatbread from the Río de la Plata, inherited from Genoese Italian immigration in the 19th and 20th centuries. In Uruguay and Argentina fainá is served alongside pizza in any classic pizzeria, cut into triangles and eaten together with the slice. Skipping it is practically a minor cultural betrayal.
“Pedí dos muzzarellas y un moldecito de fainá, como siempre. (I ordered two mozzarella pizzas and a little tray of fainá, as always.)”
“La fainá de esa pizzería es la mejor del barrio, sin dudas. (That pizzeria's fainá is the best in the neighborhood, no question.)”
