Chef John from Foodwishes.com is bringing us a fantastic recipe for Focaccia bread. This dish is easy to make, delicious, and has a unique dimpled surface that sets it apart from other breads. The dimples in the bread serve important purposes, but before we get into that, let’s make the dough.

To start, mix together dry active yeast, warm water, olive oil, salt, semolina flour, finely minced rosemary, and bread flour. Stir the ingredients with a whisk and then mix it together with a wooden spoon or spatula until it forms a thick, sticky dough.

Next, transfer the dough to a well-floured surface and start kneading it until it becomes smooth and elastic. You may need to add flour if it becomes too sticky. During the kneading process, you’ll also need to add two tablespoons of olive oil. After 7-8 minutes of kneading, you should have a soft, supple, and elastic dough.

Put the dough into a bowl coated with olive oil, cover it with foil, and let it rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it doubles in size. Once the dough has risen, lightly oil a sheet pan, dump the dough on the pan, and press it down into a rectangular shape. This will knock out any air pockets in the dough.

After this, it’s time to start dimpling the dough. The dimples in the bread serve several important purposes, including providing nooks for the olive oil to pool in and helping the bread to cook evenly. The amount of dimples you make and their depth is up to you, but Chef John suggests using your fingers to press into the dough to make the dimples.

In conclusion, Chef John’s Focaccia bread recipe is a must-try for anyone who loves bread and Italian cuisine. The recipe is easy to follow, and the result is a delicious, dimpled bread that is perfect for any occasion. So, what are you waiting for? Get your ingredients ready and start baking!
