Focaccia
Pillowy, olive-oil-rich Italian flatbread with endless topping variations.
Overview
Focaccia is one of the most forgiving and rewarding breads you can bake. High hydration, generous olive oil, and a simple stretch-and-fold method create a pillowy, golden slab that's impossible to stop eating. This page covers the fundamentals — how to build flavor through a long cold proof, how to dimple the dough for even rise, and how to top it without weighing it down. From classic rosemary and sea salt to creative seasonal toppings, focaccia is your canvas.
