I dont know much how to prepare focaccia at home before blogging, but blogsphere teached me a lot of things, especially baking and eggless cakes.Thanks to this wonderful world,nothing is impossible here. Most of us know that focaccia is a kind of flat bread quite famous in Itlay. Usually seasoned with olive oil and herbs, topped with onion, cheese
and meat, or flavored with a number of vegetables, focaccia suits prefectly with any kind of dishes as accompaniments. Focaccia doughs are
similar in style and texture to pizza doughs consisting of high-gluten
flour, oil, water, salt and yeast. It is typically rolled out or pressed
by hand into a thick layer of dough and then baked in a stone-bottom or
hearth oven.After trying various focaccia, this time i went for a simple,definitely flavourful focaccia with a variety of mixed herbs and fine semolina.Sending to Breaking Bread-Focaccia hosted at Cake Duchess.
1cup All purpose flour
1cup Semolina (fine)
1tbsp Active dry yeast
1tsp Salt
1tsp Sugar
1/2cup Luke Warm water
4tbsps Olive Oil (shaping,greasing)
2tbsp Mixed herbs (basil,oregano,thyme,parsley)
Mix the sugar, salt and yeast in luke warm water, let them sit for 5 minutes..Take the all purpose flour,semolina in a mixing bowl, add the foaming yeast(add water if needed), one tablespoon of olive oil and mix everything well, its will be stickly at this point.
Transfer the them to lightly floured surface and knead for a while until they turn soft dough..Coat a deep bowl with olive oil, place the soft dough, cover it and let it sit for 1 hour in a warm place.
After an hour,the dough will almost doubled the size...put the dough in a round baking pan.Apply few drops of oil to the baking pan n press the dough to flatten them or roll it as a flatten round disc..
Mix the herbs in olive oil,brush the top of the focaccia well and keep again for half an hour in a warm place..
Preheat the oven to 350,place the baking pan in middle rack and bake for 20-25 minutes or else until the crust turns slightly brown..
