Rosemary and Sea Salt Focaccia

I have a bit of a soft spot for bread—maybe because I love baking sourdough. This Rosemary and Sea Salt Focaccia is one of those recipes that’s simple to make.

It takes a little rising time, but the hands-on part is minimal—and totally worth it.

INGREDIENTS

– all-purpose flour – dry yeast – water – olive oil – sugar

1.

In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in warm water. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes until it becomes foamy.

In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and olive oil. Knead for 8–10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.

2.

3.

Shape the dough into a ball, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rise for 1–1.5 hours until it doubles in size. Grease a baking tray with olive oil.

4.

Place the dough on the tray and stretch it out into a rectangle (or shape it into a round). Use your fingers to press dimples into the dough.

5.

Drizzle with extra olive oil and sprinkle with rosemary and sea salt.
