The Focaccia Recipe: No Knead, No Fuss
I can’t express how much I love this recipe! It brings me such joy to make. It’s based on the focaccia recipe in Saltie: A Cookbook by Caroline Fidanza. My kids love it with a drizzle of honey or jam. It’s the perfect thing to make for entertaining. I recently brought it to a Foodie Friendsgiving. It was a total hit, and everyone wanted the recipe. It’s best day-of, but if you have any left over, freeze it and reheat it in the oven before serving.

Ingredients:
1 package of yeast or 2 1/4 tsp.
3 1/2 cups of warm water
2 tsp. coarse sea salt or Kosher salt
6 1/2 cups of flour
4 tbsp. olive or avocado oil, divided
1–2 tsp. coarse sea salt or Kosher salt, optional garnish
Instructions
Whisk the yeast, warm water, and salt in a large bowl.
Add the flour and mix with your hands until just combined. It will look like a shaggy mess and a little dry, but that’s totally ok!
Grease with 2 tbsp. oil (use a large bowl or container with a lid so that the dough can rest 4 to 12 hours). The key here is that it must be covered.
Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
Grease a rimmed baking sheet with 2 tbsp. oil. Yes, this is a ton of oil, but it also makes it delicious AF.
Evenly spread out the dough on the rimmed baking sheet using your fingertips to create the beautiful texture.
Sprinkle with the salt and bake 20–25 minutes or until caramel brown.
Place on a baking rack to let cool 20–30 minutes.
Cut into desired shapes using kitchen shears.

This is the perfect drink for a hot summer day. If you are in the north east, like me you know these days are numbered, the leaves are already falling! It’s inspired by the Venezuelan drink, Tizana, which is made with chopped fruit and grenadine and can be spiked.
