Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 17.6 oz (500 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cube (20 g) fresh yeast
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) lukewarm milk
  • 1 cup (250 ml) lukewarm water
  • rosemary

  • 1 garlic clove

Instructions

  1. Combine yeast with sugar and lukewarm milk. Stir to dissolve and let rise in a warm place for 10 minutes.
  2. Add yeast mixture to flour, salt, lukewarm water, and olive oil. Knead until a soft, elastic dough forms.
  3. Cover the dough and let rise in a warm place for about an hour.
  4. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
  5. Spread the dough over the parchment paper using your fingertips, making indentations in the dough.
  6. Sprinkle with sea salt, minced garlic, olive oil, and rosemary.
  7. Let rise for another 30 minutes.
  8. Preheat oven to 356°F (180°C).
  9. Bake for 30 minutes.

Notes

  • For a crispier crust, preheat your baking pan in the oven while it’s preheating.
  • To enhance flavor, use high-quality olive oil for both the dough and topping.
  • Store leftover focaccia in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or freeze for longer storage.
