Three Ways to Use Your Focaccia
It's amazing what you can do with Focaccia:
- Focaccia as a meal or a snack. Often the bread is served with a dipping sauce--roasted garlic oil, marinara, or a cheese sauce, Those recipes are forthcoming.
- Focaccia with a topping. You can load it like a pizza but often focaccia is sparsely loaded with seasonings and one, two, or three additions. There is no wrong way to load a focaccia. Furthermore, focaccia can be baked in a large pan for a thin bread or a smaller pan for a thick bread. (A thick bread takes longer to bake. If you have a probe-type thermometer, breads should be baked to 190 degrees.) We often bake our focaccia in a 14 or 15-inch pizza pan or an 11x17-inch baking sheet,
- Focaccia for sandwiches. Focaccia, with its seasoned bread, makes fabulous sandwiches. Split the breads, all or part way, and load it up.
It is our intention to give you a hundred ways to make a meal with your focaccia. Right now, we're about half way there.
If you're on a budget, these are affordable meal suggestions, but that's not why we love focaccia. Focaccia is delightful, easy, and can be made and served in so many creative ways.
Enjoy!
