Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Sourdough Starter: Feed your sourdough starter at least 4-6 hours prior to ensure it is bubbly and active.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine sourdough starter, water, and flour. Stir until a rough dough forms. Cover and let rest for 30-60 minutes.
  3. Incorporate Citrus and Berries: Gently fold in lemon zest, lemon juice, and diced strawberries. Be careful not to crush the strawberries.
  4. Ferment the Dough: Cover the bowl and let it ferment at room temperature for 4-6 hours, performing stretch-and-fold techniques every 30 minutes for the first two hours.
  5. Shape and Rest: Transfer dough to an oiled baking sheet, shape into a rectangle, make dimples, drizzle with olive oil and sea salt. Let rest for 1-2 hours.
  6. Preheat Oven and Bake: Preheat oven to 450°F for 30 minutes. Bake focaccia for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Cooling and Serving: Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before slicing. Top with fresh herbs or honey if desired.
