This flat bread dates back to Ancient Rome and was originally cooked in the ashes of the fire – ‘focus’ means hearth or fire in Latin! Before baking, the dough is sprinkled with a topping, such as coarse salt and herbs, and you make little dimples in the surface with your finger. We cooked this by the side of a canal in Venice – very romantic!
