TOMATO,ONION AND OLIVE FOCCACIA -LECINQBLOG'S BREAKFAST SERIES
I am CURRENTLY a PRACTICING PHYSICIAN .However, I did complete TWO YEARS of college studying GENERAL BIOCHEMISTRY AND MICROBIOLOGY, Food technology,Food Microbiology and Biochemistry prior to deciding that I am more inclined to the CLINICAL SIDE of things and hence decided to get into MEDICAL SCIENCE .I did very well in medical school thereafter and am now a "kick-ass" doctor .My interest in "Food" and the "Science of cooking" continues to this day and explains why I now have a Food blog as part of my LECINQBLOG family.I seek to dispel FOOD FADS, food myths via this food blog.I seek also to increase health awareness by canvassing for healthier diets.
I have included this item in the breakfast series, but it could easily qualify for a mention in my afternoon snacks series as well.
Foccacia is ITALIAN BREAKFAST BREAD.It is soggy,crunchy and oily all at the same time.It is flat and chewy too.
Onion is a big MUST when it comes to making foccacia.Here, I have put tomatoes, onions and olives in the one you can see in the picture.I like doing my own thing, that is why.
The french do something called a PISSALADIERE which is a similar thing..It has anchovies and onions and olive in it..Same concept,but just a wee bit different.
If you hover and click on the picture, you can see a bigger version of my picture and you can see, how the crust looks all crunchy, yet, the center is all fluffy.
The serving shape is also just like in the picture..rectangles!

Nice foccacia and nice coffee=great breakfast?Maybe?
