I love to make bread,
there is just something about making and baking bread that is therapeutic to me.
Today I am sharing how I make "schiacciata".
Schiacciata is a flat Tuscan bread,
and literally the word
"schiacciata" means "squashed".
When the dough has doubled in size the first time, get a grapefruit size chunk off the dough and spread as if you were making a pizza.
Let it rise for another 30 min
(covered with a tea towel).
When making bread and pizza I always
use my pizza stones, lightly covered with corn flour.

When 30 min. have passes,
use your fingers to make little "dents" in the dough.
Enjoy your schiacciata!

That looks so yummy! I used to make yeast dough stuff a lot before I was married and still lived with my parents. But after I was married I could never get the dough to raise! Decided it was my drafty old house and not-so-great heat. Now that it's all insulated and we have a furnace in I'm hoping it goes better!
I bet your kitchen always smells good because you're always cooking up something good! That bread looks delicious. I am such a bread lover. I've never tried that kind before.
That looks and sounds delicious, and nothing smells better than bread baking. Put a pot of soup on the stove, and it's heavenly!
That looks delicious. I bet your house smelled delicious.
My mouth is watering! You live close enough....so you can come here and make me some right? lol I will be trying this!
I love bread and rosemary so I would love this too! I'm adding this to my "try it" list.
