I've just made myself a cuppa and would love a friend if anyone is around?

Hi @Stout @Shaz51
I have some focaccia bread in the oven. I have made it twice before and it’s so easy. I prefer the 3 hour method.

You should try this Focaccia bread. Usually I fail at bread but this one works out. In a bowl weigh out 512g plain flour, 10g salt, 8g instant yeast whisk together
mix together in separate jug 1/2 cup boiling water and 1 1/2 cups tap water stir
mix water into flour with spatula until you have a dough. Pour a tablespoon of oil on top and pat it over the top of dough
cover and leave at room temperature for 2 hours
line a 9 inch x 13 inch deep tray with baking paper
pour 2 tablespoons oil on paper
Pop dough on oil, turn it over in the oil
leave to rest 30 minutes
Pour oil on top of dough, spread it out with fingers to shape of pan, sprinkle with sea salt flakes and rosemary or whatever herbs, poke with fingers to make divits
put in pre heated 220 degree oven for about 25 minutes

It’s Italian bread. I prefer mine with aged balsamic vinegar and good quality virgin olive oil. Hubby has butter on his though
