INGREDIENTS:
- 4 cups (512 g) all-purpose flour or bread flour
- 2 to 3 teaspoons (10 to 15 grams) kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons (8 g) instant yeast
- 2 cups (455 g) lukewarm water, made by combining 1/2 cup boiling water with 1 1/2 cups cold water
- 4 tablespoons Botticelli Smooth Cooking Extra Virgin Olive Oil, divided flaky sea salt
- Fresh cracked black pepper
- 1 Jar Botticelli Hot Honey Pizza Sauce
- 1 ½ cups shredded low-moisture mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup arugula
- ½ lemon squeezed
- Botticelli Bold Finishing Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 4 oz thinly sliced prosciutto
- Botticelli Balsamic Glaze
PREPARATION:
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, instant yeast, and water. Mix until a sticky dough forms. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes, then perform 8-10 stretch-and-folds until the dough becomes smooth.
- Lightly coat the dough with Smooth Cooking EVOO, cover, and refrigerate for 12-72 hours.
- Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan, or two 8-inch round pans, and coat the bottom with Smooth Cooking EVOO. Transfer the dough to the pan, turning to coat in the oil. Let rest at room temperature for 3-4 hours, until puffy.
- Preheat the oven to 425F. Drizzle the dough with more Smooth Cooking EVOO, then use your fingertips to press deep dimples across the surface.
- Spoon the Hot Honey Pizza Sauce over the entire dough, allowing the sauce to settle into the dimples. Sprinkle evenly with shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the focaccia is puffed, the edges are golden, and the cheese is bubbling.
- Allow the focaccia to cool for about 5 minutes before adding the remaining toppings.
- In the meantime, toss the arugula with Finishing EVOO and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
- Top the focaccia with the arugula, prosciutto, and a drizzle of Balsamic glaze. Finish it off with some flaky sea salt and freshly cracked pepper. Slice and enjoy.
