- Remove the dough from the food processor and place on the prepared baking sheet.
- Press the dough down evenly to nearly cover the parchment paper.
- Make fingertip indentions in the dough.
- Drizzle with 3 Tbsp. herb olive oil dipping sauce.
- Fill a metal baking pan halfway with water and place on lower rack of the oven.

Notes
- Leftover dipping oil is amazing used with other rolls or bread!
- For best results, use parchment paper on the baking pan.
- Fill another baking pan halfway with water to steam the focaccia and ensure a chewy bread.
