And believe me, I have eaten a lot of it. I have been chasing a proper rosemary focaccia for years. I tried several. This is the first one I pulled out of the oven perfect: the bottom fried and crackling in the oil, the crumb full of big holes, green olives pressed into the dimples and parmesan toasted on top. It is ridiculous.<\/p>\n
No kneading, no stand mixer. You wet your hands, stretch one side of the dough upward and fold it over the **opposite** side. Turn the bowl a quarter turn and go again, five times: one turn and a quarter. At the start the dough is lumpy and ugly. Every round makes it smoother and more elastic. And no, it does not really stick to wet hands. It handles beautifully.<\/p>\n
Yes, this is an olive and rosemary focaccia. But the real thing here is the dough. You spread it in the pan, you oil it, you put whatever you want on top, you press it in with your fingers, and you bake. Cherry tomatoes, red onion, confit garlic. Lay prosciutto over it coming out of the oven and you have your protein: it becomes a main course. It is insane.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
