Sometimes you search for the right ingredients to create standout recipes, but for today’s recipe the delicious ingredients found us. This focaccia is a celebration of multi-coloured cherry tomatoes and fragrant fresh rosemary.
It all started when we were at the local mini supermarket buying food for our ever hungry cat. We noticed a small box of wonderful looking mauve and yellow cherry tomatoes from the nearby organic farm. “We need to use these!” exclaimed Ania. As this point I put my best foot forward and offered to make a focaccia with cherry tomatoes. Ania was happy to take a small break from cooking and let me carry the show. We messaged our neighbour Suzie to try and wangle a small amount of rosemary as she grows it in her garden. She gave us enough to start an Italian bakery. When I was first taught how to make a simple rosemary focaccia, I was told that if I was ever trying to sell my house, this was the perfect thing to bake ahead of a potential buyer’s visit. The smell of rosemary and freshly baked dough is very likely to facilitate the transaction 😉 . I have no doubt you will love the look, smell and (most importantly) taste of this vegan focaccia with tomatoes and rosemary. Just try not to eat the whole thing in one go!
