Instructions to make Focaccia bread:
- In a cold medium skillet, combine olive oil, minced garlic, thyme, rosemary, and the black pepper. Place the pan over low heat and cook, stirring occasionally, 5 to 10 minutes or until aromatic, but before the garlic browns. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the warm water, yeast, and honey. Stir a few times then let sit for 5 minutes.
- Add 1/2 cup of the flour and a 1/8 cup of the infused garlic-olive oil mixture to the bowl with yeast and honey. Stir 3 to 4 times until the flour has moistened. Let sit for another 5 minutes.
- Stir in the remaining 3/4 cups of flour and the salt. When the dough comes together, transfer to a floured board and knead 10 to 15 times until smooth.
- Transfer the dough to a large oiled bowl, cover with a warm, samp towel and let rise for 1 hour. (It’s best to let the dough rise in a warmer area of your kitchen like your oven).
- After 1-1.5 hours, preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Use one tablespoons of the remaining garlic-olive oil mixture to oil a 6x10 approx rimmed baking sheet.
- Transfer the dough to the baking sheet then press it down into the pan. Use your fingers to dimple the dough then drizzle the top with the remaining garlic-olive oil mixture. Let the dough rise for 20 minutes until it puffs slightly.
