Easier to make that traditional sourdough, this roasted garlic sourdough focaccia bread is a great beginner’s recipe to bread making!
Like most people I started making sourdough bread because of the pandemic and the shortage of yeast around. It took a while to really nail the perfect sourdough round. There were lopsided boules, blown out boules because they weren’t scored enough or deep enough, over bakes and under bakes. I really should have started with something easier like focaccia! No shaping, no scoring (though I do love doing that part.), and no preheating my cast iron Dutch oven for baking. Really, this roasted garlic sourdough focaccia bread is the best way to start making sourdough breads for a beginner.
