Week 1: Rosemary Focaccia

This morning I'm making the rosemary focaccia I mentioned in the introduction.  Im using this recipe..because the picture looked pretty :P  Anyhow, I hope to have at best excellent bread, and at the very least, a learning experience :)   Dough is proofing now, pictures to follow later today. :)

Update:

Good news and bad! Bad news is, i got distracted by helping my dad outside with something, so i left the bread in the oven about 2 mins too long, so it is a little past "golden brown" color i was looking for.  However, it tastes INCREDIBLE and i got the "crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside" texture i was looking for.  Since I am staying home this weekend after all, i will bake another batch tomorrow and post results!

Attempt #1


final conclusion for today's attempt:  a bit too brown (oops), but dang tasty.


UPDATE:

Have a new batch of the dough proofing now, seems like a much nicer and less dry batch. High hopes for this batch :) Pictures of final product to follow later this afternoon.
