rosemary focaccia — I used fresh rosemary in this recipe but if you don’t have fresh you could substitute 1 1/2 Tbsp dried crushed rosemary.
You could also add in some roasted garlic to the bread dough or add some fresh garlic to the dipping oil for another layer of flavor.
My all-time FAVORITE recipe for homemade focaccia bread. It’s easy to make, and so delicious with all of that extra rosemary, olive oil and sea salt.
