Sourdough Focaccia Bread

Get your foc on with this sourdough focaccia bread recipe, and the best part is there is no kneading. Well I lied, that’s not the best part, the best part is eating this delicious airy delight. Fluffy with a bit of chew, this is the focaccia for you. Whoa sorry that was cheesy, unlike this herb focaccia bread, maybe a cheese focaccia will be next? Darn, now I want cheese.

Ok, back on track. Despite the lack of cheese, this focaccia bread hits the spot, and of course we need the oil and balsamic dip. Magic happens when olive oil and balsamic vinegar join the party, definitely the guest of honour but the star is and always will be this delicious sourdough focaccia.
