CORDON VERT GOES WILD!

Wild Herb Focaccia


Ingredients

1 tbsp (1 sachet) Easy-Blend yeast
675g strong white flour
11/2 tsp rock salt
2 tbsp wild thyme, finely chopped
2 tbsp wild marjoram, finely chopped
450ml hand-hot water
3 tbp extra virgin olive oil, plus extra for greasing
2 tsp sumac
Extra extra virgin olive oil to drizzle

Method

In a large bowl, mix the yeast, flour, salt, herbs and 1tsp sumac. Stir in the oil and
hand-hot water and bring the mixture to form a ball of dough. Turn the dough out
onto a floured surface and wash out the bowl.

Knead the dough for 10 minutes.

Place the dough back into the clean lightly oiled bowl, cover with cling film and leave to rise in a warm place until doubled in size.

Preheat oven to 230°C/450°F/gas 8 and lightly grease two 37.5 x 27.5 cm
baking sheets with a little oil.

Divide the dough in two and roll out to a thickness of 3cm. Leave to rise for 30-45
minutes. Drizzle over olive oil and sprinkle with remaining sumac.

Bake for 10 minutes, or until cooked through.
