In this workshop, you’ll learn how to work with high-hydration dough and understand the techniques behind mixing, fermentation, and proofing to achieve focaccia with the ideal texture. You’ll also explore how to naturally colour your dough using ingredients such as red yeast powder, sweet potato powder, and spinach powder, creating vibrant, visually appealing focaccia without relying on artificial colours.

From sweet and savoury combinations to aromatic garlic and herb-inspired flavours, you’ll discover how to balance ingredients and transform a simple bread into a creative culinary masterpiece.
