Rosemary And Red Onion 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!

ROSEMARY AND RED ONION FOCACCIA

Steps:

• Pour the warm water and honey into the bowl of your electric mixer with a paddle attachment. Add one package of dry active yeast and swirl around. Allow the yeast to foam for 10 minutes or so.
• Then add the cold water, lemon zest, 2 Tb. oil, salt, rosemary and onions. Turn the mixer on low and slowly add the flour.
• Once all the flour is in the bowl, switch the paddle to the bread hook attachment. "Knead" on low for about 10 minutes.
• Pull the dough away from the sides and rub the bowl down with oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and allow the dough to rise for 1 ½ to 2 hours. Remove the plastic wrap and turn the mixer back on for 30 seconds.
• Divide the dough into two pieces and press with your fingers into two 9-10 inch round pans. As you press to dough to the edges, don't be afraid to let your fingers puncture the dough-this will created the bumpy, rustic texture of traditional focaccia.
• Cover both pans with a clean, damp towel. Allow the dough to rise again for another 2 hours. Preheat the oven to 400* F.
• Before baking use the remaining tablespoon of oil and brush the tops of the loaves. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and decorate with thin onion slices, if you like.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the tops are golden-brown. Turn out the bread loaves and ENJOY!

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.

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.
