Unbaked foccacia looking wonderfully bubbly and ready to bake<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

There is nothing easier and nothing better than sourdough foccacia, it’s a great crowd pleaser, and so so moreish. I have made it so many times and it is very forgiving it just bakes up beautifully without any hassles, and we love that sort of recipe right?<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is an easy method, and a good recipe to try if you haven’t made it before or if you’re not having any luck with previous attempts.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is no need to build a levain, just use some of your sourdough starter when it’s mature and ready to go. You can also add some whole-wheat flour if you choose to, I didn’t, but my starter is fed with 1\/3 rye flour all the time.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ingredients:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • 210gms strong bread flour<\/li>
  • 155gms spring water<\/li>
  • 20gms extra virgin olive oil<\/li>
  • 6gms sea salt<\/li>
  • 75gms mature sourdough starter<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Method:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Mix everything except the olive oil together either by hand or use a stand mixer with a dough hook (I used my Kitchenaid mixer) for 1 minute on low speed, then knead for another 5 minutes on speed 2.<\/em><\/li>
    2. Now add the olive oil and knead again for another 5 minutes on speed 2, or you can also do slap and folds if you’re doing this by hand.<\/em><\/li>
    3. Rest for 30 minutes, then do a coil fold, and fold again every 30 minutes until you have done 4 folds.<\/em><\/li>
    4. Stretch into an oiled rectangular baking tin, and cover and cold proof overnight.<\/em><\/li>
    5. Take out in the morning (or later) and let it rest on the bench for about 5 hours before you want to bake it.<\/em><\/li>
    6. Wet your fingers and dimple the dough gently down into the pan base.<\/em><\/li>
    7. Drizzle over 1 or more tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and some sea salt flakes, then press some halved cherry tomatoes and rosemary sprigs into the holes evenly spaced around the dough.<\/em><\/li>
    8. Bake at 230degC for 25-30 minutes.<\/em><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      I like to drizzle it with some more olive oil when it comes out of the oven and cooling in the pan for a few minutes before you remove it. It is best eaten straightaway while warm, and best eaten on the day you bake it. That is never a problem here, it is always devoured in one sitting!!! Enjoy!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
