Servings 10 dishes

Ingredients

Focaccia dough

  • 300 g bread flour
  • 210 g water
  • 5 g sugar
  • 4 g dry yeast
  • 8 g salt
  • olive oil

Wild garlic puree

  • 20 g wild garlic leaves
  • 70 g olive oil
  • 0.5 lemon
  • 20 g pistachios

Instructions

Focaccia dough

  • Mix the bread flour with the water, the sugar and the dry yeast. Now knead this with a dough hook for 5 minutes on a low speed.
  • Then add the salt and knead it for another 3 minutes.
  • After drizzle some olive oil in a bowl and fold the dough from the outside to the bottom to create a nice ball.
  • Place it in the bowl, cover it with wrap and let it proof at room temperature for at least 1 hour or till doubled in size. 
  • Once the dough has doubled in size repeat the same folding process once more to remove all the air we just gained by proofing it.

Wild garlic puree

  • Mix the wild garlic leaves with the olive oil, the zest from the lemon and the pistachios. Blend this till smooth.
  • Then place the dough on a tray that’s covered with parchment paper.
  • Drizzle some of the wild garlic puree on top and spread it. Then spread the dough a bit as well, cover it and let it proof for another hour.
  • After that drizzle the remaining puree on the dough and press your fingers in the dough every couple of centimeters.
  • Now season it with some flaky salt and also add some pickled wild garlic flowers.
  • Then bake it at 190 °C for around 25 minutes. You’ll end up with such a beautiful and delicious focaccia. Definitely worth the wait!
  • Then portion it to the desired size. Now it’s best to serve it straight away, but otherwise heat it up at 200 °C with a splash of water for around 3 minutes.
