Schiacciata With Grapes Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a convection oven to 350 degrees F or a conventional oven to 375 degrees F.Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with olive oil spray.
• Combine the sugar, flour, cornmeal, baking powder and orange zest in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on low speed.
• Add the cream and milk to the egg yolks and whisk together. Pour into the dry ingredients. Add the butter, Marsala and vanilla extract, and mix on low speed until combined, scraping the sides and bottom as needed. Add the grapes and mix briefly to disperse.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until well browned on the bottom, about 20 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• For crust:
• Stir together yeast, wine, honey, and warm water in a large bowl until yeast is dissolved. Let stand until bubbly, about 10 minutes.
• Stir in 1 cup flour (mixture will be lumpy). Cover bowl with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, 40 to 50 minutes.
• Add oil, 1 1/2 cups flour, and sea salt and stir until a sticky dough forms.
• Knead dough on a floured work surface, gradually adding up to 1/2 cup more flour if necessary to keep dough from sticking, until dough is smooth and elastic but still soft, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Transfer dough to an oiled large bowl and turn to coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
• Turn out dough onto work surface and knead several times to release air. Cut dough in half. Roll out 1 piece of dough, keeping remaining piece covered, with a lightly floured rolling pin into a rough 12- by 10-inch rectangle. Transfer dough to a lightly oiled 15- by 10- by 1-inch baking pan and gently stretch to cover as much as possible of bottom (dough may not fit exactly).
• Scatter half of grapes over dough, then sprinkle grapes with 1/4 cup sugar. Roll out remaining piece of dough in same manner and put on top of grapes, gently stretching dough to cover grapes. Scatter remaining grapes and 1/4 cup sugar on top and gently press into dough. Cover pan with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Bake schiacciata in middle of oven until well browned and firm in middle, 40 to 45 minutes. Loosen sides and bottom of schiacciata with a spatula and slide onto a rack to cool. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• On a marble worktable stretch and flatten out the dough to about 1/4-inch thick. Place the dough onto a greased baking tray leaving 1/2 of the dough off the pan. Add 1/2 the grapes and squish the grapes with your hands to release the juices into the dough. Sprinkle 1/2 cup sugar and add 1 rosemary sprig. Drizzle the dough with 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil.
• Gently fold over the remaining dough over the grapes and pinch down the ends. Repeat the process using the remaining grapes, sugar, rosemary, and olive oil.
• Cook for approximately 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Measure the water in a measuring cup, stir in the yeast and let develop for 10 minutes. It should look foamy when it's ready.
• Meanwhile, add the flour and kosher salt to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook. Turn on to whisk together and run for a minute or so to create a well. With the mixer running, add the water and yeast in a stream. Turn the mixer up to speed 2 and knead until the dough comes away from the bowl and it looks smooth and feels elastic but still sticky, 5 to 7 minutes. Flour your hands and knead the dough for a minute on the counter.
• Grease a large glass bowl with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add the dough, flip on both sides and cover with a clean tea towel. Place the dough in a warm spot to rise until it is double in size, about 1 hour.
• Spread a half sheet tray with the remaining olive oil. Lay the dough on top and stretch and pat out until it reaches 10-by-16-inches, an oval rough shape is ideal. Use your fingertips to press in small indentations. Sprinkle evenly with the cherry tomatoes, sea salt and rosemary leaves. Let rise again for 20 minutes.
• Place on the middle rack of the oven and bake until puffed and golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Slice into wedges or squares for serving and drizzle with more olive oil, if desired.
