#CulinaryTherapy : Made from Scratch Rosemary Focaccia Bread
Has anyone else felt the sudden urge to do something like make art, whip up a recipe, or use Google to answer a ridiculous question that pops into your head right before bed? For whatever reason, I’ve never been able to ignore the sudden burst of energy I have at night; maybe there’s a part of me deep down inside that’s worried what might happen if I put the task off until tomorrow.

Around 8 PM last night, I felt compelled to make my first rosemary pizza dough; without bothering to thoroughly research the bake time, I began following Martha Stewart’s “Quick Basic Pizza Dough Recipe.” By the time I researched the next step and realized I needed at least an hour for the yeast to rise, I decided to call it a night and left my rosemary dough in the fridge overnight.
Much to my disappointment, the next day my craving for pizza dissipated and since I didn’t wanna freeze my homemade pizza dough or lose my #CulinaryTherapy momentum, I started brainstorming another way to use it. For some reason, focaccia bread popped into my head and after a little research, I was happy to learn my pizza dough only needed a few more ingredients to become focaccia bread.
After adding the necessary ingredients and following the remainder of All Recipe’s “Homeade Focaccia Bread” recipe, 30 minutes later I created my very first Rosemary Focaccia Bread to enjoy for lunch.
