What is
Everything Spice Focaccia?

Everything Spice Focaccia is a flavorful bread that combines the airy, chewy texture of traditional focaccia with the savory and aromatic blend of 'everything bagel' spices, including sesame seeds, poppy seeds, garlic, onion, and salt. This variant of focaccia is typically topped with a generous sprinkle of the spice mixture before baking, which adds a complex flavor profile to the bread.

Origins & History

Focaccia is a type of flatbread that traces its origins back to ancient Roman times, but the addition of everything bagel spices is a more modern innovation that combines different culinary influences. The 'everything' seasoning became popular as a bagel topping in New York, and its incorporation into focaccia aligns with contemporary trends of flavor fusion in baking.

Taste & Texture

The taste of Everything Spice Focaccia is a delightful combination of nuttiness from the seeds, aromatic savoriness from the garlic and onion, and a crunchy texture, balanced by the soft and chewy bread, making it perfect for dipping or as a side to soups and salads.
