\"Focaccia<\/a>

A summer focaccia worth making.<\/p><\/div>

A fontina cheese and bell peppers focaccia might sound like a lot of work.\u00a0 It\u2019s not difficult and with the few easy steps I explain here you can make this fancy focaccia with no problems. Summer is when bell peppers are at their best. Your local supermarket will have plenty on hand.\u00a0 This recipe calls for red, green, and yellow peppers.\u00a0 Yes, you can use all one kind if you prefer. I like the variety and the different color peppers add a bit of nice color to the presentation of the focaccia.\u00a0 Also, each pepper has its unique flavor, which adds to the taste of this focaccia bread.<\/p>

Fontina<\/a>\u00a0is a mild-flavored semi-soft cheese from the Aosta Valley region of northern Italy.\u00a0 It melts beautifully!\u00a0 This cheese pairs nicely with the peppers\u2019 flavor and helps make for a nice melted cheesy crust on the exterior of the focaccia bread.\u00a0 If you do not like fontina cheese you can easily substitute it with mild provolone, gruyere, or gouda.\u00a0 I suggest you stick with the fontina, It is perfect for this recipe.<\/p>

Also, this recipe is divided into six equal portions of dough. This way each one of your guests can enjoy their very own mini-focaccia. Or, you can bake the entire dough without dividing it and have one big focaccia to slice and serve. The mini version is a nice touch and it is a great way to impress your guests. Remember that in cooking it\u2019s the little personal touches that go a long way and create lasting memories.<\/p>
