FOCACCIA ROMANA
This recipe makes a great canvas for any type of topping.
Makes 18 servings
1 package active dry yeast
1 ⁄ teaspoon granulated sugar
8
1 ⁄ cup warm water (110°F)
3
4 cups unbleached, all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1 cup cold water
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
cooking spray
Stir yeast and sugar into warm water in a small bowl; let stand until
foamy, about 3 to 5 minutes. Place flour and 1 teaspoon of salt in the
work bowl of a food processor fitted with a dough blade; process to
combine, about 20 seconds. Add cold water and 2 tablespoons of oil to
the yeast mixture.
With machine running, pour liquid through feed tube in a steady stream
as fast as the flour absorbs it, about 30 seconds. Once dough pulls away
from sides of the work bowl keep the machine running for about 1 minute
to knead.
Place dough in a lightly floured, sealable plastic bag. Let rise in a warm
place until doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface. Roll into a long
rectangular shape and then press into a lightly sprayed baking sheet,
stretching the ends of the dough to meet the edges of the baking tray.
Make indentations in the dough with your fingers over the entire surface
area. Brush the dough with the remaining olive oil and sprinkle with the
remaining kosher salt. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise until
puffy, about 20 minutes.
Preheat oven to 400°F on convection bake.
Bake until golden and crisp, about 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool slightly on
wire rack. Serve warm.
