My First Attempt at Focaccia
Not bad. A tad less rosemary next time methinks.
Focaccia
2 1/2-3 cups flour
1 Tbsp dried rosemary
1 Tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
2 1/4 tsp yeast
3 Tbsp olive oil
1 cup very warm water
2 Tbsp olive oil
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1. In a large bowl mix 1 cup flour, rosemary, sugar, salt. and yeast.Add 3 Tbsp oil and warm water. Beat with electric mixer on medium for about 3 minutes scraping bowl frequently. Stir in enough remaining flour until dough is soft and leaves sides of bowl.
2. Place dough on lightly floured surface and knead 5 to 8 minutes, until dough is smooth and springy. Grease large bowl, place dough in bowl, turning to grease all sides. Cover loosely and let rise in a warm place about 30 minutes. Dough is ready if indentation remains when touched.
3. Grease 2 cookie sheets or 12-inch pizza pans with small amount of cooking spray.
4. Gently push fist into dough to deflate. Divide dough in half. Shape each half into a flattened 10-inch round. Cover loosely and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
5. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Gently make 1/2 inch deep depressions about 2 inches apart in dough with fingers. Carefully brush with 2 Tbsp oil; sprinkle with cheese. Bake 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
