#ad Making focaccia is easier than you think! With this recipe you can make your own fluffy homemade focaccia for the Christmas table or for a cozy cheese & wine night at home ✨
You can find all the ingredients you need to make this at @foodhaus.cy
Ingredients:
500 gr Caputo pizza flour
420 gr water
1 tsp yeast
1 tbsp olive oil (+ extra for the pan and to drizzle)
2 tsp salt
Toppings:
Maldon sea salt
Rosemary
Sun dried tomatoes
Olive oil and balsamic vinegar to serve
Instructions:
In a large bowl mix the water with the olive oil and yeast until the yeast is dissolved. Add the flour and salt and combine with a wooden spoon until you have a very wet dough. Cover and leave to rest for about 20-30’ depending on the temperature. Stretch and fold the dough by pulling one side and bringing it over the opposite side. Repeat the process four times until the dough is shaped into a ball. Cover for another 20-30’. Do the same stretch and fold process one more time and let the dough rest in the bowl for one hour. Line a baking tray with parchment paper and about 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Fold the dough again so it’s easy to pick up and place it into the tray, folding it into a square shape. Drizzle with some more olive oil and cover with parchment paper and a cloth and leave to rest for 1h-1:30’. Uncover the dough and spread some rosemary leaves on top. Drizzle with more olive oil and dip your fingers in the dough to make dimples. To prevent the dough from sticking, dip your fingers in some olive oil first. Finish with some flakey sea salt and sun-dried tomatoes. You can also use any other toppings you like, for example olives or cherry tomatoes. Bake at 230°C for 20 minutes until the focaccia is golden brown on top.
Serve with olive oil and balsamic vinegar and enjoy!

While the spaghetti is cooking, heat two tablespoons of olive oil and cook the cherry tomatoes with the garlic, basil, salt and pepper over a low heat until they become soft and caramelized. Remove about 10 cherry tomatoes and set them aside. Add the wine and tomato juice and cook for a few more minutes. Add the cherry tomatoes in a blender along with about 1/3 of the burrata and blend until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Pour the sauce back in the pan and add the pasta.

* Prosciutto Fungi
I decided to test 2 ways of cooking, the traditional cooking oven vs my professional pizza oven.
Verdict below
First fired up my pizza oven on full heat to get it nice and hot. It only needs 1 min to cook, and since these are found from foodhaus fresh, no defrosting needed. I found it difficult as I had to keep turning the pizza as not to burn the crust. The pizza dough base is already slightly pre-cooked so you have to be careful.
For the traditional oven method, just preheat oven to 220 degrees Celsius and pop it in for 6-8 minutes according to your oven brand and type of pizza. Margarita needs less time. Doesn’t get easier than this.

Final verdict :
So even though a pizza oven is more fancy and gives a more rustic pizza, I felt it needed abit longer for the base to cook evenly. Loved the smokey flavour this method gave and the outer crust is great if you like it burnt on edges. I guess if I try again Ill perfect it.
In the traditional oven I got a nice even cook though-out the pizza. The ingredients were all piping hot fresh out of the oven, and got an even cook of the crust. The base was cooked perfectly also.
This has to be the ideal method to cook at home and I guess the special dough was designed for this method.
Test them out and let me know, these beat any frozen pizzas on the market today, no frost or crystallization and watery parts from defrosting like those other pizzas.
