No-knead focaccia bread flavoured with roasted garlic and rosemary. A must-try bread if you are looking for fuss-free, easy, no-knead bread. You can also add olives, sundried tomato and other toppings to it.
The last Saturday the weather was gloomy and it was raining. We were in a mood to have some warm soup and bread. I had some fresh rosemary in hand so focaccia was the obvious choice. A simple soft, chewy focaccia with roasted garlic and fresh rosemary and drizzled with lots of olive oil. Simple flavours yet very satisfying.
