Key Ingredients: - Flour: Use high-quality soft wheat flour to ensure a soft and light texture. - Water: Essential for mixing and maintaining the moisture of the focaccia. - Yeast: Preferably fresh brewer’s yeast for perfect rising. - Olive Oil: Extra virgin olive oil is crucial for authentic flavor and a crispy crust. - Salt: To add flavor. Preparation in 4 Simple Steps - Prepare the Dough: Mix flour, yeast, and salt. Add water and olive oil, kneading until you get a smooth and uniform dough. - Rising: Let the dough rise in a warm place until it doubles in volume, about 1-2 hours. - Shaping: Spread the dough on a greased baking sheet, creating an irregular shape. - Seasoning and Baking: Sprinkle with olive oil and coarse salt.
