Steps:

• Combine 1 1/2 cups flour with 1 cup room-temperature water and 1/4 teaspoon yeast in a medium bowl. Stir to make a shaggy dough, making sure there are no dry pockets of flour or yeast. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature until there are large air bubbles on the surface and the dough has risen, about 4 hours.
• Combine 3/4 cup warm water with 3 tablespoons olive oil and the honey in a liquid measuring cup; stir to dissolve the honey. Combine the remaining 2 1/2 cups flour, 2 teaspoons yeast and the kosher salt in a large bowl; stir to combine and make a well in the center. Pour the honey mixture into the well. Add the risen dough mixture and stir until combined. It will be very stretchy, but continue stirring until a shaggy dough forms, making sure there are no dry pockets of flour or yeast. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature until more than doubled in size and there are air bubbles on the surface, 1 to 2 hours.
• Coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray, then pour 3 tablespoons olive oil in the middle. Oil your hands, then run your hands down the inside of the bowl and remove the dough (it will deflate). Transfer the dough to the baking sheet and turn to coat in the oil. Shape the dough into a 12-inch-long oval, gently tucking the edges under if the dough spreads too much. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature until doubled in size and there are air bubbles on the surface, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Uncover the dough, then press with your fingertips to create dimples in the surface. Top with vegetables and herbs in a garden pattern.
• Drizzle the dough and vegetables with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and gently rub it into the vegetables, pressing them into the dough. Sprinkle with flaky salt. Bake until the bottom of the focaccia has browned, the top is golden and the vegetables are tender, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool at least 15 minutes on the baking sheet.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the warm water, yeast, honey, and ½ cup (60 G) bread flour. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and set in a warm place for 20-30 minutes, until the mixture is bubbly.
• Add the room temperature water, 5 tablespoons of olive oil, remaining 2 cups of bread flour, the all-purpose flour, and salt. Mix well with a rubber spatula to combine until the dough starts to come together.
• Turn the dough out onto a surface lightly dusted with all-purpose flour and bring together. Knead for 10-15 minutes, adding flour as needed to prevent sticking. The dough should be smooth and supple and bounce back when pressed.
• Coat a large bowl with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and transfer the dough into the bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest in a warm place for 1-2 hours, until doubled in size.
• Remove the plastic wrap and punch the dough down.
• Grease a 18 x 13-inch (45 x 33 cm) baking sheet with 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil and use your hands to spread the oil all around the pan to coat. Transfer the dough to the pan and cover the dough with the same piece of plastic wrap. Let rest for 10-20 minutes so it is easier to stretch.
• Uncover the dough. With oiled hands, gently stretch the dough to fit the size of the baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap again and let proof at room temperature for 1-2 hours, until the dough rises to fill the pan, or refrigerate overnight. Refrigerating overnight is optional, however it will result in a better final texture and flavor. If refrigerating, let the dough come to room temperature for 30-60 minutes before proceeding, until slightly puffed.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Use your fingers to dimple the surface of the focaccia dough. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
• Use the dill, rosemary, edible flowers, asparagus, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, Kalamata olives, Fresno chiles, watermelon radish, chives, and radish to create a decorative gardenscape scene on the focaccia. Sprinkle all over with flaky sea salt.
• Bake the focaccia for 15 minutes, then turn the pan and bake for another 7-10 minutes, until the bread is golden brown in the areas not covered with toppings. If the toppings are getting too dark, lightly cover the focaccia with foil for the remainder of baking.
• Remove the focaccia from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and drizzle with more olive oil.
• Slice and serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the warm water and yeast. Let bloom for 5 minutes until foamy and fragrant.
• Add the flour, salt, and 1 tablespoon olive oil to the yeast mixture. Stir with a rubber spatula until the flour is fully incorporated. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead 10-12 times, until smooth, dusting with more flour as needed if the dough is sticky. Shape the dough into a ball.
• Grease an 8-inch cast iron skillet with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Transfer the dough to the skillet and, with lightly oiled hands, carefully spread out the dough until it covers the bottom of the pan. Press with your fingertips to create tiny indentations in the top of the dough.
• Cover the pan with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough proof in a warm place for 1-1½ hours, or until doubled in size.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C)
• Drizzle the top of the dough with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and sprinkle with the rosemary, parsley, and red pepper flakes, if using.
