How to Make Kimchi & Bacon Focaccia
- In a large mixing bowl, mix together the strong bread flour, salt, yeast, and granulated sugar.
- Slowly pour in the warm water while stirring, until a shaggy dough forms.
- Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead it for about 10 minutes.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm spot until it doubles in size—around 1 hour.
- Preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F) while the dough is rising.
- After the dough has risen, punch it down and knead in the chopped kimchi, bacon (if using), and chopped spring onions.
- Shape the dough into a rectangle and place it onto a baking tray sprinkled with semolina or polenta.
- Use your fingertips to create dimples all over the surface of the dough, then drizzle it generously with olive oil.
- Let the dough rest for another 30 minutes.
- Slide your dough into the preheated oven and bake it for about 30 minutes.
- Once baked, allow it to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
