Focaccia is an easy to make flatbread bread that pairs wonderfully with a steaming hot bowl of soup or pasta. Sourdough Focaccia is the best because it has a soft chewy crumb that is hard to beat.

If you are on the line about sourdough, this recipe is one of the easiest to try. The toppings and spices can be varied to suit your taste. Just be sure to limit the oil to less than a teaspoon per serving to stay in an E setting.

If you have never tried to make a sourdough starter, here is a blog post telling you what to do on each day. This post has pictures of each day showing you how your starter should look.

If you would like to jump right into sourdough baking, I do send small jars of starter. I just ask that you cover the cost of packing/shipping. Message me or send an email .

Sourdough is very intriguing to me. I love to feed my starter and make my family delicious breads with it. If you have questions about sourdough..there is various blog posts that will answer your questions. It’s all About Sourdough!
