Focaccia

Ingredients

2 cups bread flour or all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for drizzling/coating the pan as well as the focaccia

1 teaspoon instant yeast

1 cup warm water (75 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit)

1-3 sprigs of rosemary leaves

Flaky sea salt, to taste

Directions

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the water, yeast, flour, and olive oil until a shaggy dough forms.Add the salt and mix until the dough comes together. It will be sticky.Coat the top of the dough with a thin layer of olive oil and cover with a tea towel.Place dough in a warm place and let rise for 2 hours.Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.Once the dough has risen, turn it out into a well-oiled enameled cast-iron braiser or baking pan.Gently stretch the dough to the edges of what you are baking it in. Be gentle and patient at this step. It may take a few tries to get the dough to that shape.Cover with a towel or plastic wrap and put in a warm place to let rise in the pan for another 30 minutes.Once dough is ready, coat your hands in olive oil and gently dimple the top of the dough to create small wells with your fingers.Drizzle generously with more olive oil, rosemary, and flaky sea salt.Place in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until lightly golden.Remove from the oven and carefully from the pan.Slice, serve, and enjoy!
