    Overnight No Knead Focaccia Bread

    Overnight No Knead Focaccia Bread is full of deliciously fresh baked flavors that go great with any main entree. The bread is soft in the middle to give that extra ohh my goodness feeling when you sink your teeth in for a much anticipated first bite. The only problem you will have is making enough of this to make it though the first meal. The first batch I made was gone before I knew it. Succulent fresh made bread that is to die for.

    In a large bowl: combine flour, salt, yeast and whisk. Add lukewarm water and 2 tbsp olive oil. Use a wooden spoon or spatula and mix everything together (it’s going to be wet & sticky). In a separate or same bowl: coat the dough with 2 tbsp olive oil (this will prevent the dough from drying out). 

    Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate in the refrigerator at least 12 hours or up to 24 hours.

    Remove the bowl from the refrigerator. Gently fold the dough (inwards) a few times (highly recommended). Cover again at room temperature for an additional 30 minutes.

    Coat the baking pan with 2 tbsp olive oil. Remove the dough from the bowl and transfer to the (greased) baking pan.

    Try your best to spread the dough across the pan to form a rectangle. Cover with a cloth or towel and let sit at room temperature for 3-4 hours.

    Preheat the oven to 425°F. Remove the cloth or towel. Pour ½ cup olive oil on top of the dough.

    Use your fingers to poke dents into the dough (poke all the way down to the baking pan) all over top surface.

    Sprinkle the top with salt (recommend using Mediterranean Sea Salt) and fresh rosemary leaves.

    Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes (it took me 25 minutes) or until the edges are golden &crisp. Remove the pan from oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes.

    Then transfer the focaccia to a cooking rack, let rest until cool to touch. 

    Slice and serve warm.

        No Knead Rosemary Garlic Bread

        The fresh aroma of rosemary steaming from fluffy garlic bread that is without a doubt restaurant quality. You may never buy local fresh made bread from the store again once you try this recipe. You will need to start the process the day before you plan on serving it but believe you me that it is well worth the time. I used a skillet and placed it in the center of the table and served with a good Italian pasta inspired meal and it went fast. You will be taking one more slice just to clean the sauce off of your plate.

        Watch the video and follow the instructions below to have fresh made extremely tasty and comforting fresh made bread on your table for the next big family meal. If you are like me and like to tear pieces of bread, talk over the day and sip a good wine and eatfoodlicious.

        In a large bowl: add yeast, sugar, salt, pepper, minced garlic, minced fresh rosemary and mix.

        Add flour and mix.

        Pour warm water and mix. It is normal for the dough to be wet & sticky.

        Cover the bowl with saran wrap or an airtight lid for at least 12 but up to 18 hours.

        Coat skillet or dutch oven pan with cooking spray. Then sprinkle the bottom with cornmeal. Remove the saran wrap or airtight lid from the bowl.

        Transfer the dough to the skillet or dutch oven pan. Shape the dough into a ball. First Dough Rise: Cover with a clean towel or saran wrap for the first 1 hour. It’s ok if the dough touches the cover.

        Second Dough Rise: Remove cover and let it rise for another 2 hours or until it doubles in size.

        Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C). Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown.

        Optional: In a small bowl; combine melted butter and fresh rosemary. Brush the rosemary butter on top of the hot bread. Slice the bread into 8 slices.
