Focaccia tomorrow. Here's how to walk in ready.🧄

🔥

Focaccia is the most forgiving bread we bake, and it's still the one people talk themselves out of. Too wet, too oily, "I'll ruin it." You won't. This dough wants to be handled loose, and that's exactly why it's the perfect Saturday bake.

Here's the thing about focaccia: the magic isn't in the mixing, it's in the waiting and the dimpling. A slack, well-hydrated dough, a long rest, and good olive oil do most of the work for you. Your job is to stay out of its way.

Before tomorrow, get three things lined up:

Good olive oil. Not the fancy finishing bottle you're saving, but not the cheapest one either. You'll use more than you think, and it matters.

A pan you trust. A quarter sheet, a 9x13, or a cast iron skillet all work. Whatever you've got with sides.

Flaky salt if you have it. That final pinch on top is the difference between "nice" and "I can't stop eating this."

If you want to prep the dough tonight for an overnight rise, drop a comment and I'll walk you through the timing. Otherwise, meet me here tomorrow and we'll build it together, step by step.

Who's in for focaccia? Tell me what pan you're using so I can help you plan your bake.
