Three Cheese Focaccia

🧂 Ingredients

• 2 ½ cups All purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Sugar
• ⅓ teaspoon Instant yeast
• ¼ cup Gouda cheese – grated
• ¼ cup Gruyere cheese – grated
• ¼ cup Swiss cheese – grated
• 1 ½ cups Water – lukewarm
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Dried basil
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil

Instructions

• 1 In a large bowl mix together the flour, salt, sugar, yeast and three cheeses.
  Add the water and mix by hand until combined.
• 2 Lightly oil a large bowl. Put the dough in the bowl and cover it with plastic
  wrap. Let it rest for about 10-12 hours or until it has more than doubled in
  size and covered with bubbles.
• 3 Flour a flat surface, place the dough on the flour and using floured hands,
  gently fold the dough from the edges to the centre to make a loose ball. Place
  the dough back in the bowl, brush it with olive oil and sprinkle some sea salt
  on top. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and set it aside to rest for about 2
  hours or until doubled in size.
• 4 Pre-heat the oven to 450F (230C). Dust a baking sheet with flour and place the
  focaccia dough in the middle. Make dimples in the dough with your fingers in an
  outward motion so to stretch the dough a bit. Drizzle the focaccia with olive
  oil, top with the dried herbs and sprinkle some more sea salt.
• 5 Bake for approximately 20 minutes or until the crust becomes golden brown.
  Transfer the focaccia to a cooling rack and let it rest for about 10 minutes
  before cutting. Serve and enjoy!
