Sage bread and olive oil
A wonderfully fragrant version of foccacie. It is a bit unusual to add white wine to bread, but it acts as an extra ferment in this case, and deepens the taste of the bread itself, which gives it a special texture. Super light… Sage gives a special taste, and when baked it becomes crispy…. Super looks, and tastes even better….
Preparation steps
- First make the basic "yeast" which will later be the foundation of our bread.
- Mix the yeast and lukewarm water in a larger bowl, mix until the yeast dissolves and leave for about 10 minutes to become creamy.
- Add the flour and beat with a food processor until smooth.
- Leave covered for half an hour until it rises a little and bubbles appear.
- Then add wine, olive oil, crumbled yeast, sage and salt to the yeast. Add light flour and knead the dough again. The dough should be soft but not sticky.
- Shake it on a lightly floured work surface and mix, and if necessary, add more flour.
- The dough should be soft but not too wet.
- Place the dough prepared in this way in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic and leave for about 20 minutes.
- Knead the dough again, form into a circle, 5 mm thick. Place on a lightly oiled baking tray and cover again and leave to rise for about 1 hour.
- Make small holes in the dough with your fingers, sprinkle with shredded sage and salt and pour over the olive oil.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 200 * for about 25-30 minutes. For the first 10 minutes of baking, spray the oven with cold water.
- Remove and serve, hot or cold.
