Topping
Method
Making the Dough
Activate the Yeast
In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Allow to sit for about 10 minutes until frothy.
Mix Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead the Dough
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Let the Dough Rise
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Assembling and Baking
Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the Focaccini
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into small balls (about the size of a golf ball). Flatten each ball slightly and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Add Toppings
Sprinkle each focaccini with fresh rosemary, sea salt, and place halved cherry tomatoes on top. Drizzle with olive oil.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
Serve
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and drizzle with balsamic glaze before serving.
