Simonbaker here is my foccacia recipe. Its easy and messy
I've found the best way to handle the dough is to wet my hands with warm water and pet it inot the pan I use a 15x16 cookie sheet stret hing the dpigh to about 12 inches this makes a thinner foccacia, if you want it thicker like for a small sandwich put your dough into a smaller pan and let it rise and it will give a fatter piece for a sandwich. I like it thinner and more crispy and cut into small squares as in open faced sandwishes. When dough has risen the first time put on cookie sheet and dimple the dough with finger tips then lightly brush with evoo and sprinkle with kosher or finishing salt, do this again when foccacia comes out of the oven.
ingredients are 4 cups a/p flour 2 Tab. saltm 2 Tab. sugar, 2 pacls of yeast 2 cups lukewarm water 150 degrees 2 Tab EVOO Mix altogether til tacky then let rise for 2 hrs. coveredAfter 2 hrs. turn out onto lightly floured board and knead 10-12 times. Pur evoo onto cookie sheet and put dough on it.Try to spread dough to edges then top it with a piece of saran or plastic wrap you've sprayed with cooking spray let rise another hour then bake in a 375 oven foe 20-25 min til lightly golden. re-oil top and add more salt . Remember to put dimples in top of dough before putting in the oven.
