– 4 cups flour
– 2 teaspoons yeast instant
– 1 tablespoon salt
– 1 teaspoon sugar
– 1 1/4 cup lukewarm water approximately 37 degrees
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
Topping
2 tomato roma tomatoes are delicious
2 tablespoons Italian herbs such as thyme, rosemary, oregano
1 clove garlic squeezed
3 tablespoons olive oil extra vierge
1 oz. Parmesan cheese
✅ Instructions
Preparation
1. Put the yeast together with the sugar and the water in a small bowl and mix well. Let stand for 5 minutes.
2. Place a baking paper on the baking sheet.
3. Wash the tomatoes and cut into thin slices (¼ inch, 0.5 cm thick) and season with salt and pepper. Finely chop the Italian herbs and garlic for the topping and mix them with the olive oil .
Focaccia
1. Put the flour in the bowl and add the yeast mixture and the olive oil.
Knead with the mixer for 5 minutes and then sprinkle the salt on it. Mix another 10 minutes until the dough is smooth. Grease a bowl with some oil and put the dough in it. Turn the dough once and first cover the bowl with a slightly damp tea towel over which you put plastic foil. Place the bowl in a warm place and let the dough rise for an hour.
2. Preheat the oven to 430 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius).
3. Press the air out of the dough. Place the dough on a baking sheet and press it into the desired shape (about ½ inch / 1.5 cm thick).
Topping
1. Push with your fingers holes in the Focaccia (not completely through the dough, just enough until you get a slight bowl).
2. Spread the tomato slices on top of the Focaccia. Sprinkle the bread with the herbal oil.
3. Bake the bread for 10 minutes in the oven, remove it and sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese. Then bake for another 5 to 10 minutes until the Focaccia is golden brown.
