Focaccia Bread
Ingredients:
2 ¾ Cups Flour
2 ¾ Cups Bread Flour
3 Tablespoon Olive oil
1 Tablespoon Yeast (bloom)
3 1/2 cups water
Pinch of sugar
1 Tablespoon Kosher Salt
1 Tablespoon My Family's Prime Rib Seasoning
|
Directions:
Bloom your yeast. You must warm the water to 85°- 110° depending on the type of yeast. (it should be on the pkg.) Gently pour the warm water into the bowl with 1tablespoon of yeast and add a pinch of sugar. Let sit for 15-20 mins.
While the yeast is "blooming" mix your flour with the 3 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of kosher salt. It will be dry. Once the yeast has "bloomed" skim the film that looks like beer foam off the top (it's not very much) Then pour the yeast into the flour mixture and mix the old fashion way, with your hands. Pour olive oil on your hands. the dough will be tacking and strechy like taffy, this is good, keep mixing and kneeding until it's smooth, roll into a ball. Cover bowl with a towel and place in a warm spot to let dough rise to about twice it's original size.
Once it has risen, place on oiled large cookie sheet and spread out. Using your finger-tips kneed the dough making dimples across the top (like a cat when it's purring and massaging your back, hahaha) Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of My Family's Prime Rib Seasoning and kneed it into the dough
Place in pre-heated oven for 35-40 mins. or until golden brown. Great for dipping with Balsamic Vingar and olive oil.
