Focaccia Bread
Hello friends! It’s Ashley from The Recipe Rebel back again today with, yep, more comfort food! Making homemade Focaccia bread might seem intimidating, but I promise you there are just a few ingredients and a few simple steps. In fact, making flat bread is a great introduction to bread making because you simply roll it into a large circle and dimple it with a wooden spoon, instead of worrying about rolling perfect rounds for rolls or rolling up a loaf of yeast bread. Focaccia is one of my favorite breads for dunking. It just doesn’t get better than the golden, chewy exterior seasoned with Italian herbs, and the soft and fluffy interior. It’s the best of both worlds and pairs well with just about any soup, chili or saucy pasta you can think of!
How to make Focaccia bread:
Can I use instant yeast in this Focaccia bread recipe?
You can absolutely use instant yeast in this Focaccia bread recipe! In fact, you can probably substitute instant yeast for active dry yeast in almost any yeast bread recipe. Both instant yeast and active dry yeast work the same way, and achieve the same resuls. The difference is that active dry yeast has larger granules and needs to be dissolved and activated in warm water before adding to a recipe. Instant yeast has fine granules that can be mixed right into the dough. You can swap the active dry yeast in this recipe for instant yeast and not change a thing — I still like to proof my instant yeast to make sure it’s not old or stale. Proofing yeast is what happens when you dissolve it in warm water — it will become thick, foamy and bubbly if it’s working.
