    The two best looking focaccia loaves I've made in a while. Didn't use a flavored olive oil so I think the bread suffered a little. I'll simmer some garlic in the oil next time. I always do it, just forgot this time.

    Suggest maybe reconstituting the tomatoes so the pieces are not too hard.

    Loaves turned out half way on the chew scale between bagel and bread which is just perfect for a focaccia loaf. Didn't make the 10" rounds. Went for 8" rounds so the loaves would be just a little thicker. They are the perfect size to make sandwiches cut in half and split without worrying about making either half of the sandwich slice too thin to the crust.

    Going to the store today and will pick up some deli meats and cheese and tomato and lettuce.

    Crust is just a little crusty and the inside softer. A little time in a plastic bag will make the crust softer.

    Definitely use a flavored olive oil here.

    Overnight dwell time in a plastic bag took the crustiness out of the loaf. This is going to make a super sandwich today.
