    Being at home and not baking anything is quite impossible.. I am very much fond of Breads and love making them at home.... Afterall nothing beats the aroma of freshly baked bread..

 So #BreadForTheWeek is Focaccia Bread, a delicious Italian classic made with basic ingredients and topped with some Olive Oil, Fresh Rosemary and flaky sea salt.

Fresh Rosemary is the key ingredient in this bread as the whole flavor comes from it..

It has a thick crust with texture just like Pizza Dough. Rosemary Focaccia Bread is very common in Italy and can be used as sandwich bread, served as a snack, with some pasta, table bread and a appetizer.

This has been by far the best homey made bread recipe, which suprisingly turned out to be just amazing_ both in texture and taste which am sure you all will love it.

Here you go.... List to make the utmost delicious FOCACCIA BREAD --

Ingredients - For Dough

1 Pac of DCL Instant Yeast

3 + 1/2 Cup Flour

1 Cup Warm Water

3 Tsp Salt

A pinch of Sugar

2 Tbsp Olive Oil

For Brine - 1 Tbsp Olive Olive, 1 Tbsp Water (Optional) Flaky Sea Salt and 2-3 Sprigs of Rosemary, Red Chili Flakes

Instructions - Add all the ingredients in a bowl and gently mix till everything is well combined and a dough comes together..

Note - this dough can be quite sticky so do not panick.. Just add some more flour to work with.

Transfer the dough in a greased bowl and brush olive oil on it so that there are no crust formed. Cover with damp cloth and let it rise till double in volume.

Knock it down to remove the air and spread it on a rectangular greased and floured rectagular baking tray. Poke the dough with your finger tips to form dimples. Cover it again with damp cloth and let it rise for another 30 Mins Or it is double in volume and 1/2 inch thick.

Drizzle Olive oil on top of it, add red chili flakes, flaky sea salt and rosemary sprigs on it. You can also use diced olives.

Preheat oven at 450Deg' F for 20 Mins. and bake the bread till golden brown in color.

Once done remove from the tray immediately on a cleaned surface or parchament paper. Drizzle some more Olive Oil and let it cool down completely.

Enjoy this delicious bread with your regular cup of tea !!!
