Fornarina Recipe

Preparation Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Dough

   In a bowl, dissolve the active dry yeast in warm water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy.

2. 2

   Mix Ingredients

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and sea salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture and olive oil.

3. 3

   Knead the Dough

   Mix the ingredients until combined, then knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

4. 4

   Let It Rise

   Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

5. 5

   Shape the Flatbread

   Once risen, punch down the dough and divide it into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a flat round shape, about 1/4 inch thick.

6. 6

   Add Toppings

   Brush each flatbread with olive oil and sprinkle with chopped rosemary and sea salt.

7. 7

   Cook the Flatbread

   Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each flatbread for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden and crispy.
