2. 2

   Place all ingredients in the machine in the correct order and program for Dough or Manual. When this cycle is completed, pat, roll, stretch the dough into a flat disc on a peel or a 12-14 inch pizza pan which is sprinkled with cornmeal or lightly oiled. Cover with a clean cloth and allow it to rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk. Preheat oven to 475 degrees F. with shelf and/or stone in center position. Just before inserting the focaccia into the oven, make little dimples all over its surface. Drizzle entire surface with 2 or more TBSP olive oil and sprinkle with 1 - 2 tsp of coarse salt, e.g. Kosher salt. Bake 18-20 minutes until top is golden brown. I baked mine in a pizza pan and at 15 minutes, slid the focaccia off the pan directly onto the stone--supposedly for a crisper crust. Hey, it worked!!
