Don'tcha Wanna Foccacia

Best Sandwich Ever. And I don't say this lightly.
Make the bread. Quit whining. It is fast cheap and easy. 

Gorgeous Foccacia
Makes 3 large loaves

1.75 cups warm h20
1.5 tblsp yeast
1 tblsp salt
.25 cup olive oil
Dump all in a stand mixer with a dough hook on low.

6.5 cups flour ( i used whole wheat white)
Add one cup at a time.



Scrape side of the bowl and mix again. Turn off and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise at room temp for 2 hours.

Cut off a 1/3 of the dough. make a ball. Stretch the bread into a round loaf by tucking the sides of the dough in towards the center. Flatten the loaf out a bit till the size of a small pizza. Sprinkle with coarse salt, pepper, rosemary, thin sliced onion and a bit of parmesan. Press it all in gently. Let sit for 20 minutes.

20 minutes into bread resting, heat oven to 425. Put the bread on a cookie sheet in the oven.
Bake 20 minutes.  Let it rest, then cut wedges.

Top with salami, butter lettuce, campari tomato, deli mustard and sliced avocado. Delight. Enjoy with a Diet IBC Root Beer and try to avoid passing out with joy.
