Rosemary Focaccia

I found this recipe at http://www.recipezaar.com/recipe/The-Best-Rosemary-Focaccia-Bread-63530
the only think i changed was to mash the salt and rosemary together, and i think next time i would mix the rosemary into the bread.. but aside from that, it is a very tasty recipe.
a lot of people said they needed to add more water, but i didn't and it worked out well for me.

Directions

  1. 1
    Dissolve the yeast in 1/2 cup of the warm water, and let sit 10 minutes until bubbly.
  2. 2
    In a large bowl, combine the flour, Ts. of salt, yeast mixture and remaining water.
  3. 3
    Mix thoroughly with a wooden spoon and then your hands.
  4. 4
    Transfer to a floured work surface and knead by hand for a few minutes or until smooth.
  5. 5
    Place in a well oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise until doubled, about 1 1/2 hours.
  6. 6
    Punch down and place on an oiled baking sheet, forming into an oval or circle.
  7. 7
    Dimple the top surface with your finger tips, and then drizzle with the oil and sprinkle with coarse salt and rosemary.
  8. 8
    Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Bake about 20 minutes or until golden.
