Hello!Today I tried a new recipe;)It is grape focaccia,a kind of Italian pastry.We enjoyed it so much and I decided to share with you!Sure you would like to see the recipe and try to bake it!Here we go!!!
For filling:
Sugar 100 g
Black grapes 800 g
Olive oil extra virgin 8 tbsp
For the bread dough:
Flour 500 g
Water 300 ml
Yeast 12 g (fresh)
Malt (or honey, sugar) 1 tsp
To prepare the grape focaccia, begin by making the bread dough: dissolve the yeast (1) and the malt (2) in a little lukewarm water (taken from the total amount needed), mix and let it rest for a few minutes. In a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, combine the sifted flour with the yeast and malt mixture (3)
and start beating, adding the remaining water in a thin stream (4). When it forms a smooth and soft dough, transfer to a floured pastry board and knead quickly with your hands (5). Form into a ball, place in a bowl, covered with cling film (or with a clean, damp cloth) and let it rise for a couple of hours in the turned off oven, with the light turned on: it should double in volume (6).
When the bread dough has risen, return to the mixer and beat for another 5 minutes, adding ¼ cup (50 g) of sugar and 4 tablespoons of oil (7) (if you prefer, you can knead by hand). Now wash the grapes under cold running water (8) and remove from the stems (9).
Divide the bread dough into 2 parts and roll them out with a rolling pin to a thickness of ½ inch (1 cm) (10). Brush a 12x15-inch (30x40 cm) baking pan with oil (11-12);
place the first sheet of dough on the bottom of the pan, top with half of the grapes (13), sprinkle with a tablespoon of sugar (14) and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil (15).
Now place the second sheet of dough on top (16), add the remaining grapes, then sprinkle with sugar (17) and drizzle with the remaining olive oil. Bake your grape focaccia in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 50-60 minutes (18); once cooked, let it cool and serve sliced.
I took the recipe from Giallo Zafferano app, I find it really exciting and very useful!
