Directions
01
Preheat oven to 450 F (230 C) and lightly grease standard 9 x 5 inch (23 x 13 cm) loaf pan.
02
For focaccia, in large bowl, combine all dry ingredients and whisk thoroughly. With large wooden spoon or spatula, slowly add in wet ingredients and fold to combine.
03
Turn dough onto lightly floured surface and knead for 3 to 4 minutes. Add dough to greased loaf pan and top with a splash of olive oil. Lightly press fingers into dough to create indentations. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown.
04
Once cooled, remove loaf from pan and slice loaf in half horizontally, as if you were making one large sandwich. If using, spread mayonnaise or aioli equally on cut side of both halves. Add meats, arugula, and burrata cheese to build sandwich. Cut into 6 equal portions and serve.
