Ingredients
- 14 oz bread flour
- 1 2/5 cup water
- 0.95 fl oz olive oil
- 0.14 oz sugar
- 0.28 oz salt
- 0.14 oz instant yeast
Instructions
- 1In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread flour, water, olive oil, sugar, salt, and instant yeast; stir until no dry flour remains, forming a shaggy dough.
- 2Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rest at room temperature for 20 minutes (autolyse).
- 3Perform the first stretch‑and‑fold: wet your hand, grab one edge of the dough, stretch it upward, and fold it over the center; repeat 4‑5 times, rotating the bowl each time.
- 4Allow the dough to rest for 5 minutes, then repeat the stretch‑and‑fold process two more times, for a total of 3 sets, to develop gluten.
- 5Cover the bowl again and let the bulk fermentation continue until the dough has roughly doubled in size, about 60‑90 minutes depending on room temperature.
- 6Generously drizzle olive oil into a 9×12‑inch baking pan, spreading it to coat the bottom.
- 7Carefully transfer the risen dough into the oiled pan, gently stretching it to fill the pan without deflating it too much.
- 8Cover the pan loosely with plastic wrap or a damp towel and let the dough proof for a final 45‑60 minutes until it puffs up noticeably.
- 9Preheat the oven to 430°F (428°F) while the dough is proofing.
- 10Just before baking, drizzle additional olive oil over the surface, press dimples into the dough with your fingertips, and sprinkle any desired toppings (e.g., rosemary, sea salt, olives).
- 11Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25‑30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the crust sounds hollow when tapped.
- 12Remove the focaccia from the oven, transfer it to a cooling rack, and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
