Never made focaccia before and this recipe was easy and delicious - a must try! I followed the recipe exactly as written with the small addition of a little chopped fresh rosemary before baking. My dough took 1/2 hr. longer to rise than stated in the recipe, but you'll be able to tell when it has doubled. I baked it for exactly 25 minutes and it was golden brown on top and light and fluffy on the inside. I can't wait to try different toppings the next time. You can embellish this basic recipe with anything. Let your imagination go wild! Anne, you rock!

I made this bread last night for dinner. It was easy to make and tasted really yummy. My boyfriend really liked it as well. His only comment was that it tasted a little salty. I used the amount called for in the recipe ,but maybe next time I will reduce the salt to 1 tsp instead of 1 Tbsp. as called for by the recipe to see if that helps.

I will also reduce the cooking time to 20 minutes as others have pointed out. The bread was nice and golden brown on the top, but a little overcooked on the bottom. It was still nice and chewy on the inside. The extra olive oil made it really delicious as well.

I have to agree, this is a go to recipe for me. I bring a tray of what I call a 7-olive focaccia to parties, and I'm loving the accolades. I chop up a variety of olives to put on top just before placing it in the oven. When I take it out, I generously grate fresh parm or romano all over the top, drizzle a little more olive oil and let it cool.

My big changes are subbing out 2 cups whole wheat flour and I use my infused olive oil throughout the recipe (garlic cloves, red pepper flakes, oregano and thyme... Mmm-mmm-mmmm!!! Anne, at my house, we love your recipes and your show!!

This bread was delicious! It was very easy to make, crusty on top and soft inside. My family loved this recipe! I made it with Rachel Ray's pasta w/ gorgonzola cream sauce and some braised venison.....so good!!

I have never made bread before and I have spent a fortune buying focaccia bread from my local Italian deli. When I saw Chef Burrell's recipe I had to give it a try. It was so easy to do and it tasted better than any bread I have bought at my deli. Thank you for this outstanding recipe!

I love to try new things, but sometimes my family isn't quite as enthusiastic as I am...but THIS recipe they raved about. Thank you Anne for an easy and tasty new treat for our family.

I made the recipe twice. The first time I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great. Everyone loved it. The second time I added grated asiago cheese and sprinkled chopped rosemary on top. So good. Anne rocks it again.

This is a great recipe. Very easy to make and Delish!!! My husband loved it. I had only one problem. I cut down a little on the amount of olive oil in the pan but it was still more than the pan could hold. I used a jelly roll pan and wonder if I should have used a sheet tray instead. Some of the oil ended up on the floor of my oven and I had a house full of smoke! 20 minutes was just right...It was perfect.
I love to try Anne's recipes...never a dissapointment.

This was my first time making bread...and it came out nice and tasty. I would comment on leaving it for about 20 minutes in the oven instead of 25. It came out very sticky and I had to add tons of flour before it was a smooth dough, but the end result was great!
