Spicy Focaccia Bread for Blog Hop


Hi Friends,


Today is the 4th week of Blog Hop Wednesdays, an effort started by Radhika. It encourages us to blog hop and try our fellow blogger's recipes. Please check out what all this is about.


This week, I am paired with Charishma of Cherie's Stolen Recipes, who has this amazing blog with variety of recipes. You will find recipes from every course and every like of yours. Love it. Please check out her blog and follow if you are not already doing so.


I wanted to try something that I hadn't tried yet. And, now that I am this pattern of trying to bake, my eye caught the recipe of my favorite savory bread on earth, which is Spicy Focaccia Bread. It is my absolute favorite. Every time I go out for hot panini or sandwich, this is the bread I request it on. I simply love the texture and how nice it is in my mouth. If you have never tried it, you don't know what you are missing when it comes to savory breads. 




I have used her recipe as it is with the exception of adding cilantro (because I forgot, dumb me) and chilies on top as my kids and hubby do not like it very spicy. My husband, who is usually a big critic, loved it and wanted to try another slice even though he is watching his diet. It took me just 5 minutes of prep works, 1 hour of bread rising (remember like Charishma says, it doesn't rise a lot like other yeast breads)  and thereafter 40 minutes of baking @ 375 degree F. Thanks Charisma for this wonderful recipe :)



Please do check what other blog hoppers are cooking.





That's all for now. Take care till next post.
