Frankie G's Focaccia Trio.
I searched long and hard to make a focaccia that gave me the taste of what my grandmother would make us at Christmas time. This is a form of Peter Reinhart's recipe from his book- Bread Baker's Apprentice. I tweak it a bit, but there is no doubt that Peter's recipe is the bomb. The result is a soft dough with a slightly fried textured bottom - almost resembling pastry dough on the exterior. It's truly wonderful. I say this recipe is "Dough and Process" because I believe that you can "top" it with what ever you like, or "cook" it to the doneness of what ever you desire. We have made three in this video, Grape & Sugar, Grogonzola & Rosemary, and a version of my grandmothers sfincione which she called civata, (shi-va-tha). |

We usually put anchovy on the sfincione but I omitted it this time since Natalia does not care for anchovy and I was making this for her. I do make a note in the video that if one wants anchovy, place dime-size pieces directly on the dough, under the sauce. It's delish. The tools used in this section are the 1/4 Sheet Pans - Focaccia!, Dough Scraper / No Scratch , Stainless Steel Flour Shaker , and FG pizza's Digital Scale . |
Natalia's Garlic Knots in the Woodfired oven.
This is my daughter's favorite appetizer. Every pizza party we have, Natalia wants to make sure we have some dough put aside for garlic knots before the pizza party. So here's a quick little video on how we make them. What are garlic knots? They're soft, warm, garlicky, cheesy knots of dough. Originally made on the east coast of the US, and slowly trickling towards the west. We hope you try them with your family and friends. Send us a note and let us know how you like them! |
FGpizza items included in this video are the Dough Scraper / No Scratch, the Pizza Cutting Board & Serving Peel, and the Perforated Banjo Peel - 59" handle.
