Instructions
- Prepare the dough: In a stand mixer, combine the flour, water, yeast, and oregano. Mix on low speed for 5 minutes, allowing the dough to start forming.
- Add oil and salt: Gradually add the olive oil and salt, then knead for an additional 5 minutes.
- Initial rest: Let the dough rest in the mixing bowl for 30 minutes.
- Transfer the dough to a work surface and fold it with your hands to strengthen it. Let it rest for 1 hour.
- Repeat the folding and resting process two more times.
- Rising phase: Place the dough in a lightly oiled container refrigerate the dough overnight for a slow rise.
- Prepare for baking: Preheat your oven to 465°F (240°C).
- In a small bowl or cup, mix 2 tablespoons of olive oil with 4 tablespoons of boiling water, stir until combined.
- Transfer the dough to a well-oiled baking pan.
- Use your fingers to create the iconic dimples across the surface of the dough and brush or pour the water/oil mixture evenly over the surface.
- Bake: Bake the dough in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until it’s golden and cooked through.
- Serve: Serve the focaccia warm and enjoy its delightful aroma and flavor!
