Focaccia Art



Assignment:

You must design, using vegetables, a piece of art you will bake into your bread. You must draw out/ write out your plan first to include in your blog.


Ingredients:

7 ml active dry yeast

5 ml sugar

500-625 cups all-purpose flour

3 ml salt

25 ml olive oil

10 ml rosemary, divided

125 ml sliced olives (optional)

3 ml coarse salt

1 batch caramelized onions (optional)

Preparation:

DAY ONE

In the large bowl stir together the yeast, the sugar, and 215 ml lukewarm water and proof the yeast mixture for 5 minutes, or until it is foamy .

Stir in 500 ml of the flour, salt, and 15 ml of the olive oil and knead the dough, occasionally and adding as much of the remaining 1/2 cup flour as necessary to form a soft, slightly sticky dough, for 3 minutes. Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl, turn it to coat it with the oil. Transfer to an XL Ziplock, label, & store in the fridge.

DAY TWO

Knead in the chopped rosemary, press the dough with lightly oiled hands into a well-oiled pan (you can also line the pan with parchment) and let it rise, covered loosely, for 30 minutes.

Dimple the dough with your fingertips, making 1/4-inch-deep indentations, brush it with the remaining oil, and top it with vegetables for form art. Bake the focaccia in the bottom third of a preheated 400 degree F. oven for 20-30 minutes, or until it is golden and cooked through. Transfer the focaccia to a rack, let it cool for 10 minutes, and serve it, cut into squares, warm or at room temperature.
