Freshly baked focaccia is the foundation of many things, including one of the greatest sandwiches I've ever made!

ITEMS USED:


INGREDIENTS:

  • 825 g Bread Flour

  • 150 g Whole Wheat Flour

  • 830 g Water (100°F)

  • 20 g Fine Sea Salt

  • 30 g Extra Virgin Olive Oil

  • Za'atar

  • Flaky Salt


INSTRUCTIONS:

Method:

  1. In a large bowl of a stand mixer, combine bread flour and whole wheat flour.

  2. To the side, mix warm water (100F) with instant yeast. Mix thoroughly.

  3. Using a dough hook attachment, mix on low speed while mixing in the yeasty water. Mix for 10 minutes. Scrape down the sides occasionally.

  4. Add fine sea salt and switch to medium-low speed and mix for an additional 10 minutes.

  5. While mixing add in extra virgin olive oil and mix for an additional 3-5 minutes.

  6. Dump dough out onto a non floured work surface. Knead using the slap and fold method for about 2 minutes.
