Focaccia Bread

Focaccia
Recipe from Jackie Williamson

2 Cups warm water
1 teaspoon sugar
2 Packages of yeast
4 Cups flour
2 teaspoons salt
6 Tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons dried rosemary
2 teaspoons dried basil
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon garlic powder.
Grated parmesan

Mix water, sugar, and yeast and let sit for about 5 minutes. Mix in flour and salt. Knead to form a soft dough. Let rest for 10 minutes. Heat olive oil, rosemary, basil, oregano, and garlic powder over stove. Bring oil to a simmer and turn off heat and let sit for a few minutes. Using a pastry brush, brush some of the oil on the bottom of a 9x13 pan. Press dough into pan. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes. Make indentations with fingers. Drizzle or brush remaining oil on the bread. Top with parmesan. Bake at 400 for about 20 minutes. Let cool in pan.

*Can make a pre-made mix for seasonings to use and save time.
