This Scallion Ginger Oil Focaccia is a flavorful twist on traditional focaccia, featuring a delightful infusion of ginger scallion oil. The dough is topped with aromatic ginger and scallions, crispy toasted sesame seeds, and flaky sea salt. Baked until golden brown, this focaccia offers a crispy crust and a soft, chewy interior, making it a perfect accompaniment to any meal or a savory snack on its own.
When transferring the dough to your baking pan for shaping and the second rise, instead of using olive oil, drizzle the pan and dough with the oil from the ginger scallion sauce.
Once the dough has finished proofing, preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Scatter the solid pieces of the ginger scallion sauce over the dough. Sprinkle with chopped scallions and dimple the dough with your fingers. Finish by adding toasted sesame seeds and Maldon flaky sea salt on top.
Bake the focaccia on the middle rack of the oven for 25 minutes, or until it’s golden brown.
