Red Onion Garlic And Rosemary Focaccia Recipes

ROSEMARY AND RED ONION FOCACCIA RECIPE

Steps:

• Dissolve the yeast in the warm water for about 5 minutes, until it becomes cloudy and bubble.
• Mix the flour, table salt, garlic powder, and fresh or dry herbs in the bowl of a mixer with the paddle attachment.
• With the mixer running on low, pour in the yeast mixture and olive oil until the dough becomes formed and sticky. Switch over to the dough hook, and knead on medium to high for about 5 minutes. Toss a little extra flour around the edges of the bowl and knead for another 5 minutes on low.
• Remove the dough from the mixer bowl and transfer to large bowl that has been oiled. Let it hang out there for about an hour and half until it has doubled in size. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit when the dough has about 15 minutes left to rise.
• Once the dough has fully risen, gently dump it out onto a baking sheet that you've lined with parchment paper and shape it into a flat, rounded, loaf. Poke the heck out of it with your fingers to make the little indentations, then drizzle the extra olive oil over the top and brush it to distribute evenly. Top with rosemary and onions, then finish with coarse sea salt.
• Bake for 30 minutes until golden brown. Let cool before cutting. Serve with olive oil and balsamic vinegar for dipping!

RED ONION & ROSEMARY FOCACCIA

Steps:

• Make the basic dough, adding 2 tbsp olive oil and only a pinch of salt. While the dough is rising, cook onions in 1 tbsp olive oil for 5 mins until soft, then set aside.
• When the dough has risen, knock it back and stretch it to fit an oiled Swiss roll tin about 25 x 35cm. Leave the dough to prove for about 20 mins.
• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Spread the onions over the dough and scatter with the rosemary. Press your fingers into the dough to make dimples, drizzle the remaining oil over and scatter over the salt, then bake for 30 mins until golden. Leave to cool, then serve cut or torn into squares.

Punch dough down. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes. Shape into an 11-in. circle; place on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes. Using the end of a wooden spoon handle, make several 1/4-in. indentations in dough., Brush with oil. Sprinkle with garlic, rosemary and remaining salt.

RED ONION, GARLIC AND ROSEMARY FOCACCIA

Steps:

• Sift the flour, salt and sugar into a bowl.
• Stir in the yeast, (this should be 1 dessert spoon but Zaar doesn't like it -- so it's about half a tbsp) oil and water.
• Mix to a dough. Add more liquid if kneaded (depends on the dough you're using) but be careful.
• Turn the dough out and knead it for 10 minutes on a lightly floured surface.
• Place in an oiled bowl in a warm place (window sill / airing cupboard) for about an hour to double in bulk. Cover it with cling film or a wet tea towel to stop it from forming a crust. (If it does, then knead it some more to get rid of it - but it will then need more proving time to get the air back).
• Roll the dough out into a rough oval shape about 1cm thick, and place onto an oiled baking tray.
• Make deep holes in the dough about 1 inch apart.
• Allow to rise for 20-30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 200C / 400F / GM6
• Mix together the remaining oil, garlic and rosemary (leave to sit for a little while to flavour the oil).
• Spread over the surface of the bread, and cover with the chopped onion.
• Sprinkle over the salt, and then flick on some cold water to stop a skin from warming as it cooks.
• Bake for 25 minutes, and then cool on a wire rack.

GARLIC AND ROSEMARY FOCACCIA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F.
• Combine garlic and oil in a very small metal bowl and set on a baking sheet. Bake in lower third of oven 1 hour. Cool on a rack 30 minutes. Pour oil through a small sieve into another bowl and discard garlic. Whisk together yeast and warm water in bowl of a standing electric mixer and let stand 5 minutes, or until creamy.
• Stir 1/3 cup garlic oil into yeast mixture. Whisk together 7 cups flour and table salt and stir half of flour into yeast mixture. Fit mixer with dough-hook attachment. Add remaining flour and mix on low speed 3 minutes, or until dough pulls away from side of bowl, adding more flour if necessary. Knead dough with dough hook on medium-high speed, scraping down hook and side of bowl as needed, 5 minutes, or until dough is soft and slightly sticky. Transfer dough to a large oiled bowl, turning with floured hands to coat with oil. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let dough rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour. Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Oil a 17- by 11-inch baking pan with some of garlic oil. Gently press dough into pan, allowing dough to rest 5 minutes if difficult to work with. Cover dough with oiled plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 30 minutes.
• Make indentations in dough at 1-inch intervals with oiled fingertips. Drizzle with remaining garlic oil and sprinkle with rosemary, coarse salt, and pepper. Bake in lower third of oven until deep golden on top and pale golden on bottom, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer bread to a rack and serve warm or at room temperature.

OLIVE, ROSEMARY, AND ONION FOCACCIA

Steps:

• In the large bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the dough hook stir together the yeast, the sugar, and 1 3/4 cups lukewarm water and proof the yeast mixture for 5 minutes, or until it is foamy. Stir in 4 1/2 cups of the flour, the salt, and 2 tablespoons of the oil and knead the dough, scraping down the dough hook 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, and let it rise, covered, in a warm place for 1 hour, or until it is double in bulk. Knead in the chopped rosemary, press the dough with lightly oiled hands into a well-oiled 15 1/2- by 10 1/2-inch jelly-roll pan, and let it rise, covered loosely, for 30 minutes. The dough may be made 8 hours in advance and kept covered and chilled.
• Dimple the dough with your fingertips, making 1/4-inch-deep indentations, brush it with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, and top it with the onion, the olives, the salt, and the whole rosemary leaves. Bake the focaccia in the bottom third of a preheated 400°F. oven for 35 to 45 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.
