Focaccia

Method

Focaccia

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy. Add flour, sea salt, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Mix until it forms a dough.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

  3. 3

    Shape the Focaccia

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Once risen, press the dough into a greased baking sheet, spreading it to the edges. Dimple the surface with your fingers and drizzle with remaining olive oil. Sprinkle with chopped rosemary and coarse sea salt.

  4. 4

    Bake the Focaccia

    Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Let cool slightly before cutting into squares.
