Shape and Bake the Dough
Follow directions for preparing your dough.
When you are ready to bake, remove dough from the fridge and place on a lightly oiled work surface. Cut the dough into two pieces. Shape each into a ball and leave them covered on the counter till they come to room temperature (about 60 minutes).
Preheat the oven and a baking stone or baking steel (or a baking sheet turned upside down) to the highest temperature.
Working with one piece of dough at a time, sprinkle some flour underneath and on top of the dough and press it into a circle. Flour your hands, slide the backs of your hands underneath it, and use your thumbs to gently stretch out the edges, turning the dough as you work. The edges should be thicker than the center.
Open the oven and carefully slide the focaccia onto the baking stone or steel. If using a baking sheet, carefully remove it from the oven, dust with flour, gently slide the focaccia onto it, and return it to the oven. Bake five to seven minutes, until golden and puffed.
Brush the edges with olive oil and set aside. Alternatively, store at room temperature in an airtight bag or freeze (if freezing, don’t brush with oil).
