How Italians make FOCACCIA in Italy: Focaccia Genovese Recipe
===========
This classic focaccia is often eaten as a breakfast in Genoa, dipped in a cup of Cappuccino! The Focaccia Genovese is a short focaccia with a soft structure inside and a crispy outside. It’s golden surface contrasts with the lovely white holes that it is famous for.

Focaccia Genovese can be eaten plain, or with one or more classic toppingsโ€”such as onions, olives or sundried tomatoes!
