Focaccia

3 cups all purpose flour, divided use

2 cups warm water (100-110 degrees), divided use

2 packets rapid rise yeast

1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus a bit more for sprinkling

4 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon finely chopped rosemary

1 tablespoon finely chopped thyme

Olive oil, for serving (optional)

Instructions: Mix 1/2 cup flour, 1⁄3 cup warm water and 1 packet of yeast in a large mixing bowl. Cover and leave out for at least 8 hours or overnight.

Then add the remaining ingredients to the yeast and flour mixture.

Stir until combined and let rise for about an hour. Shape into 1 or two round discs (similar to a round pizza crust) on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with kosher salt and bake at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes or until golden. Serve with olive oil if desired.

You know me so well.....
I love making Focaccia.  It is so easy and tastes great.  
A great way to start if you are not used to making yeast breads.
I love the ones that rest the dough over night.  It develops more flavor that way. 
Not great for the sodium levels but I love sprinkling coarse salt, rosemary and a drizzle of olive oil on top. And if it is for the adventurous I will also sprinkle a bit of red pepper flakes.

Nellie, Thank you for the focaccia bread recipe. This looks really great.
I love focaccia bread and love to dip it into a mixture of extra virgin
olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Have printed and will try soon.

Nellie - Thank you for this recipe.  I sent it along to my daughter - she loves making focaccia.  She said she is planning on trying it this weekend.

i finally got some yeast yesterday
i'm going to start this later        to bake tomorrow
is it all right to mix bread in the s.s. bowls?     because of the weight of my glass mixing bowl the s.s. one would be easier for me to handle
