    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Dissolve the yeast in lukewarm water, then add it to the flour mixture.

    2

    Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. Add 30 ml of olive oil and knead it into the dough.

    3

    Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

    4

    Preheat the oven to 430°F (220°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil.

    5

    Stretch the dough to fit the size of the baking sheet. Use your fingers to create small dimples in the dough.

    6

    Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the dough, sprinkle with coarse sea salt, and add fresh rosemary if desired.

    7

    Bake the focaccia for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

    8

    Let it rest for 5 minutes after baking, then slice and serve immediately.
