Another try at the Foccacia , this time with a fancier shape. This was yummy, although, again, not as puffy and dimpled as I expected. I liked the fresh herbs and olive oil (no surprise), and it was useful to have a single edge razor tool (which I got from King Arthur Flour) for making the slashes. This recipe also has you spray the inside of the oven - it wasn't clear that increased the humidity much. In the past, I've used ice cubes in order to make moisture inside the oven (I think I got that from an older Julia Child book somewhere or other....).

Looks good! Hoping to get this made myself soon.
ReplyDeleteI think the ice trick was in the bagel episode. :-)
