Focaccia is a traditional Italian bread known for its fluffy texture and savory flavor. Made from a simple dough of flour, water, yeast, olive oil, and salt, it is often enriched with toppings like rosemary, olives, tomatoes, or garlic. Originating from the Ligurian region, focaccia is a versatile staple in Mediterranean cuisine, prized for its ability to complement soups, salads, or act as a base for sandwiches. Olive oil, a key ingredient, provides heart-healthy fats and antioxidants that promote good cholesterol levels and overall cardiovascular health. However, focaccia can be high in carbohydrates and calories, especially when paired with rich toppings or excessive salt. Moderation is key to incorporating focaccia into a balanced diet while enjoying its comforting flavor.
