Focaccia can be used a few ways. If made into a thick, flat loaf, it can be sliced and used for sandwiches or panini. To make a thick focaccia, simple double this recipe so it is 2 inches deep going into the oven.
Here, it pays homage to the first pizza, thought to use a focaccia dough. This makes a thinner focaccia, though still a substantial “crust.”
We blistered some tomatoes with salt and a bit of optional shards of hard cheese for a perfect, casual summer dinner to accompany a chilled wine and crisp salad.
