Fougasse!



One of my favorite bread recipes is a olive and sun-dried tomato fougasse that I made one night in baking class. I've made it a couple times at home and when I saw we had many olives and sun-dried tomatoes at work I figured it'd be a fun thing to test there. On Thursday morning I baked four loaves and cut two of them up as samples and one I used as a side for the lunches. As usual, the bread went over really well, the staff loved it and customers were asking if we were selling it in loaves. The fourth we sold to a customer at the end of the day. Matt really liked the bread and asked me if I would bake more of it the next day. Unfortunately, all the sun-dried tomatoes were gone so I couldn't but he is ordering more and I will bake a bunch of bread to sell this coming week. I'd like to try another flavor for the fougasse too since some people don't enjoy olives so much. Maybe one with onions and...?
