So some of you may think, like me, that the best part of a pizza is the crust. You know, that nice crisp crunch in every bite covered in tomato sauce, lots of cheese, and of course pepperoni! Well, the OCCI baking and pastry students were working on this past week and one of my favorites is the focaccia bread. Once baked, this bread can make a very yummy pizza crust, garlic bread, or it’s even great plain. I have attached a recipe for everyone so they can make their very own. ENJOY!

Water                                    15   oz
