DELICIOUSLY EASY GARLIC HERB FOCACCIA



Deliciously Easy Garlic Herb Focaccia image

Make focaccia in an hour. Or a little longer if your bread machine doesn't have a pizza cycle. Also great as a pizza dough! I personally use 2 cups unbleached bread flour and 1 cup whole wheat flour. As with most recipes I have created - they are a base on which to build.

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 teaspoon white sugar
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
⅓ cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
¼ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, dissolve sugar and yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, combine the yeast mixture with flour; stir well to combine. Stir in additional water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until all of the flour is absorbed. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead briefly for about 1 minute.
  • Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).
  • Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface; knead briefly. Pat or roll the dough into a sheet and place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Brush the dough with oil and sprinkle with salt.
  • Bake focaccia in preheated oven for 10 to 20 minutes, depending on desired crispness. If you like it moist and fluffy, then you'll have to wait just about 10 minutes. If you like it crunchier and darker in the outside, you may have to wait 20 minutes.

ROSEMARY - GARLIC FOCACCIA



Rosemary - Garlic Focaccia image

I was lucky enough to have my Italian uncle Pat make this for me all through my teens. I like to think now that it sustained me more than physically. I could eat this every day and never get tired of it - it's the perfect bread.

Time 1h25m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 ounce active dry yeast (one envelope)
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
4 -4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons dried rosemary, crumbled
3 -5 garlic cloves, minced very fine (depending on how garlicky you want it, I go all the way!)
1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt or 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt

Steps:

  • In a bowl, stir together yeast, sugar and 1 ¾ cups lukewarm water and proof yeast for 10-15 minutes, or until foamy.
  • Stir in 4 cup of flour, 1 tblsps of the olive oil and the salt, adding as much of the remaining flour as necessary to form a soft and slightly sticky dough.
  • Transfer to a lightly-oiled bowl, turn to coat, and let rise, covered, in a warm place for 1 hour, or until double in size. Knead dough down and press with lightly-oiled hands into a well-oiled 15 ½ x 10 ½ inch jelly-roll pan and let it rise, covered loosely, for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Set rack in center of oven.
  • Dimple dough with your fingers in places, drizzle 2 tblsps olive oil over and spread over dough; sprinkle with rosemary, garlic and sea salt.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes or until pale golden. Let cool for 10 minutes before cutting. Serve warm or at room temperature.
  • Note: I often make up the garlic/oil/rosemary mixture one or two days ahead of time and refrigerate it. Dried oregano is also a GREAT add-in.

SUPER QUICK GARLIC & OLIVE "BETTER THAN" FOCACCIA



Super Quick Garlic & Olive

This is from "Quick & Simple" by James Barber and it sure is! I usually make it in a round pie tin, not the baking sheet he recommends. I don't add the black olives because I don't care for them. This was titled as just a focaccia but after PAC with Dwynnie reviewing my recipe she mentioned that it has a bit of a biscut type texture so we came up with a new name. Enjoy!

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 55m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons instant yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
2 teaspoons salt
6 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
8 large garlic cloves
2 tablespoons italian seasoning
1/2 cup olive oil
6 tablespoons olive oil (top)
1 3/4 cups warm water (hot to touch, not burning)
coarse salt
1 egg yolk, beaten with 2 tsp water
1/2 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese (top, to taste)

Steps:

  • Place the flour, yeast, sugar, 2 teaspoons salt, half the rosemary and garlic in the food processor bowl. Process in a few bursts to mix. With the processor running, slowly add 1 cup of the water, then the 1/2 cup olive oil and finally the remaining 3/4 cup water. Process until the dough coalesces into a ball and starts riding around on the blade. Turn out on a floured board and knead a few strokes. Dough should be relatively stiff but still pliable. Place in an oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise in a warm place 'til doubled, about 1-1/2 hour.
  • Place the baking stone in the oven and preheat to 450º. Punch the dough down, divide into 2 balls and flatten each ball to a disk about 8 - 10 " in diameter. Place on a corn-meal covered board or peel, cover with a clean towel and allow to rise in a warm place for about 1/2 hour.
  • When the dough has finished the second rising, use your forefinger to poke deep dimples all over the loaf, about 1-1/2" apart. Drizzle olive oil over the loaves, scatter on the remaining rosemary & garlic then slide them onto the stone. Bake 10 minutes, then lower the oven temperature to 375º and bake 20 - 25 minutes more, until the bread is a nice dark golden brown. Two minutes before the bread is done, brush with the egg wash and sprinkle generously with the coarse salt.
  • Allow to cool on a rack for 5 - 10 minutes before serving.
