Saskia's
no-fuss focaccia tastes great with the chicken salad. Salty, crisp, fluffy and chewy, this won’t be round for long! Decorate with roasted grapes, sharp blue cheese and aromatic rosemary and finish with a scattering of sea salt.
Saskia's tip: Chuck all the ingredients together the night before, give it a mix and then be rewarded in the morning with the heavenly scent of freshly baked bread.
