GRANDMA PEGGY'S FOCACCIA

Provided by Food Network

Time 4h25m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 medium Yukon gold potatoes, peeled
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
2 tablespoons sugar
4 1/2 cups bread flour, plus more if needed
2 cups semolina flour
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for greasing and drizzling
4 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
12 cherry tomatoes, halved lengthwise
1 tablespoon dried oregano

Steps:

  • Put the potatoes in a large saucepan and add cold water to cover by an inch. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Drain and mash into a creamy consistency; cover to keep warm.
  • In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast in 1/4 cup warm water. Stir in the sugar and set aside until the mixture blooms with a slightly foamy top, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Add the bread flour, semolina flour, mashed potatoes, olive oil, 4 teaspoons of the salt and 3 cups warm water to the large bowl with the yeast and mix with a wooden spoon until the ingredients come together into a soft, wet and uniform dough.
  • Transfer the dough to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment. Knead on low speed, gradually increasing the speed to medium, until the dough is firm and has a smooth consistency, 8 to 9 minutes. Kneed in 1 to 2 additional tablespoons flour if the dough doesn't appear firm and smooth. Place the dough in a large greased bowl, cover with a dish towel and let rise at room temperature in a dark area until doubled in size, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
  • Evenly grease a baking sheet with olive oil. Transfer the dough to the baking sheet and lightly stretch and press it towards the sides of the baking sheet until the dough is about 1/2 inch thick (it will not reach the sides). Let the dough sit for 10 minutes.
  • Continue to stretch the dough to the sides of the baking sheet using your fingertips; this time it will reach the sides. Cover the dough again and let it rise for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
  • Dimple the focaccia all over using your fingertips. Drizzle olive oil over the top of the dough and arrange the cherry tomatoes over the top cut-side down. Garnish with the oregano and remaining sea salt.
  • Bake until the focaccia is golden brown and a toothpick or knife inserted in the middle comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Allow it to cool completely on the baking sheet.
  • Enjoy immediately or wrap it tightly and store on the countertop for up to 3 days.
