the focaccia bread our bakery makes is seasoned with oregano and topped with olive oil and kosher salt!. We use it for lots of different things but one of them is a flattened piece of focaccia dough, baked slightly then basil pesto, tomato slices and asiago cheese is added then finished baking!.

Focaccia is a flat oven-baked Italian bread, which may be topped with onions, herbs or other foodstuffs, related to pizza, but not considered to be the same!. The word is derived from the Latin focus meaning “centre” and also “fireplace” -- the fireplace being in the centre of the house -- and this is a bread baked in the hearth!. In English, it is sometimes redundantly referred to as focaccia bread!.

Focaccia is used extensively as a sandwich bread outside of Italy!.

It is typically rolled out or pressed by hand into a thick layer of dough and then baked in a stone-bottom or hearth oven!. Bakers often puncture the bread with a knife to relieve bubbling on the surface of the bread!. also common is the practice of dotting the bread!. This creates multiple wells in the bread by using a finger or the handle of a utensil to poke the unbaked dough!. As a way to preserve moisture in the bread, olive oil is then spread over the dough, by hand or with a brush prior to rising and baking!.

Focaccia can be used as a side to many meals, as a base for pizza or as sandwich bread!.
