Gluten Free Rosemary Focaccia
I’ve never made
bread, with gluten or otherwise, so in the spirit of 1sts I bought some Mrs
Crimbles Bread Flour mix and some dried yeast; never worked with that before. I found a recipe
online for Basil and garlic focaccia, I’ve always wanted to make rosemary focaccia
and we have a rosemary plant growing in the garden, so instead of sourcing
basil (wrong time of the year) we went with rosemary, and we both love
rosemary.
Basically you prepare
the bread as per the box, adding oil, warm water and Yeast (scary) to the bowl.
Then pop this on a greased tray, sprinkle with GF flour and make into a circle. In a small bowl mix
Rosemary, olive oil, lemon juice, chilli flakes, salt and pepper. The fun part is poking big holes and sloshing the oil about, I needed photo taking help as my hands were messy, but I wanted a Photo!
TADA!!
Leave this to prove
and it should grow, and then pop it in a preheated oven, till it turns golden
brown (texture like sun) about 20-25 minutes. This was pretty awesome
to eat alongside the gluten free pasta, a few olives and salad the flavour was
really nice.
It did taste a little
bit underdone and verged on the side of Yorkshire pudding or toad in the hole. I would make some changes next time, using less oil and trying to get the bread to raise a bit more, warmer water, or warmer proving space?
