It's the perfect accompaniment to a wide variety of dishes or delicious on its own as a savory snack.
- Ensure your water is warm but not hot (about 110°F or 43°C) to activate the yeast effectively.
- Knead the dough properly until it becomes smooth and elastic to achieve the perfect texture.
- Let the dough rest and rise in a warm, draft-free spot to ensure it doubles in size.
- Use a generous amount of olive oil on your hands and the baking sheet to prevent sticking and to add extra flavor to the crust.
- Press down with your fingertips to create characteristic dimples on the focaccia before baking; this helps the olive oil and herbs to penetrate the dough.
- If you prefer fresh thyme over dried, adjust the quantity to taste, as fresh herbs tend to be more potent.
Congratulations! You've successfully made a delicious Olive Focaccia with Thyme & Sea Salt. Enjoy the aromatic blend of thyme and the rich, salty olives in each bite of this soft, flavorful bread. Serve it to accompany your favorite meals, or savor it as a delightful stand-alone snack.
