Preparation:

(optional-use combination of flour and ground chick peas) corn meal, bread crumbs, ground chick peas, or flour (for cutting board) Also-rolling pin + cutting board or similar surface In a big bowl, mix flour, and baking soda (and salt if you want any) (Mix with your hands/fingers) Add 1 tablespoon milk and work the mixture with your hands, trying to make a big ball.
