Description

This focaccia is soft, fragrant, and soaked with golden olive oil β€” just like they bake it in Liguria. Puffy dough with dimpled tops, a light crunch at the edges, and sea salt in every bite. It’s the bread that disappears while it’s still warm.

Ingredients

  • 🌾 500 g all-purpose flour (4 cups)
  • πŸ’§ 325 ml warm water (1 β…“ cups)
  • 🍯 5 g sugar (1 tsp)
  • πŸ§‚ 10 g salt (2 tsp)
  • 🍞 7 g active dry yeast (1 packet)
  • πŸ«’ 50 ml olive oil, plus more for drizzling (3 Β½ tbsp)
  • πŸ§‚ Flaky sea salt for topping
  • 🌿 Optional: rosemary or sliced olives

Preparation

  • 1️⃣ Activate yeast: In warm water, dissolve sugar and yeast. Let sit 10 min until foamy.
  • 2️⃣ Make dough: Add flour, salt, and olive oil. Mix and knead 8–10 min until smooth and elastic.
  • 3️⃣ First rise: Cover and let rise 1–1.5 hours, until doubled.
  • 4️⃣ Shape: Transfer dough to an oiled baking tray. Stretch to fit.
  • 5️⃣ Dimple & drizzle: Press fingertips into the dough to make dimples. Pour olive oil generously over the top.
  • 6️⃣ Second rise: Let rise another 30–45 min.
  • 7️⃣ Bake: Sprinkle with sea salt (and rosemary if using). Bake at 220Β°C (430Β°F) for 20–25 min until golden.
