• sugar

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat an oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line the bottom of a 10-inch cake pan with parchment paper.
2. 2 Beat the sugar and butter with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Add the room-temperature eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the butter mixture before adding the next.
3. 3 In a separate bowl, combine the almond meal, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and lemon zest. Gently fold it into the butter mixture, stirring just until combined.
4. 4 Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake in the preheated oven until the cake is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 90 to 120 minutes.
5. 5 While the cake is baking, combine the lemon juice and superfine sugar in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and boil until the sugar has dissolved and the liquid is reduced by half. Remove from heat.
6. 6 Remove the cake from the oven and use a skewer or toothpick to prick holes in the cake. Pour the lemon syrup over the surface. Allow the cake to cool in the pan completely before serving.

Ingredients

• ✓ cornmeal
• water
• active dry yeast
• bread flour
• salt
• water
• olive oil
• biga
• extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions

1. 1 Place 1/2 cup warm water in a small bowl, and sprinkle yeast over the surface. Let stand until yeast is absorbed, about 10 minutes.
2. 2 Combine flour and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the center, and pour in the cold water, yeast mixture, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and biga. Stir together using a sturdy wooden spoon.
3. 3 When the dough comes together, turn out onto a floured surface, and knead vigorously for about 20 minutes. Take a few 1 to 2 minute breaks if you like. The dough will be somewhat sticky until it is fully kneaded. Form dough into a ball. Rub the inside of a clean bowl with oil, and place the dough in it. Turn to coat the ball with oil. Cover with a towel and let rise at room temperature until doubled in size. This will take about 1 1/2 hours.
4. 4 Punch down the dough by folding the edges into the center and turning it over so the top is once again smooth. Cover the bowl again, and let the dough rise a second time until doubled, about 45 minutes.
5. 5 Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently flatten into an 8 inch square using the palms of your hands. Cover and let rise again.
6. 6 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place a baking stone in the oven while it preheats. Dust a bakers peel with cornmeal, and gently slide it under the dough square. Use your fingers to make a dimpled surface by pressing them about 3/4 of the way down into the dough. Mist with water.
7. 7 Sprinkle a little cornmeal over the surface of the baking stone. Slide the square off of the peel onto the baking stone. Mist some water into the hot oven, and quickly shut the door.
8. 8 Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until the top is golden brown. Remove from the oven to cool on a wire rack. Brush the surface with remaining olive oil while the foccacia is still hot.

Ingredients

• ✓ cornmeal
• flour
• brown sugar
• water
• salt
• olive oil
• active dry yeast
• egg
• water

Instructions

1. 1 Place flour, brown sugar, warm water, salt, olive oil, and yeast into the pan of the bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select dough cycle; press Start.
2. 2 Place a pizza stone in the oven. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). The oven must be preheated for at least 30 minutes before baking.
3. 3 Deflate dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Form dough into 2 loaves. Place loaves seam-side down on a cutting board generously sprinkled with cornmeal. Cover loaves with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes.
4. 4 Beat together egg and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl until well combined. Brush risen loaves with egg mixture. Make a single long, quick cut down the center of loaves with a sharp knife. Gently shake the cutting board to make sure loaves are not sticking. If they stick, use a spatula or pastry knife to loosen. Slide loaves onto the hot pizza stone with one quick but careful motion.
5. 5 Bake in the preheated oven until loaves sound hollow when tapped on the bottom, 30 to 35 minutes.

Ingredients

• ✓ cornmeal
• water
• active dry yeast
• semolina flour
• olive oil
• salt
• pizza sauce
• basil
• provolone cheese

Instructions

1. 1 Pour ⅓ cup warm water into a bowl; sprinkle yeast over top. Let stand to make sure yeast is active, 10 to 15 minutes.
2. 2 Add 1 ½ cups semolina flour, olive oil, and salt to yeast mixture; mix with your hands to form a relatively stiff dough ball, adding more water if needed to bring dough together.
3. 3 Transfer dough to a work surface; knead until smooth, about 5 minutes. Cover with the bowl; let rest for 30 minutes.
4. 4 Uncover dough; knead 3 to 4 minutes. Divide dough into 2 portions; shape each into smooth balls, using damp hands to help smooth out dough, if needed.
5. 5 Generously dust half a kitchen towel with semolina flour; place dough balls on top. Sprinkle dough ball tops with semolina flour; cover with other half of towel. Let dough rise until almost doubled in volume, about 2 hours.
6. 6 Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and sprinkle with cornmeal.
7. 7 Roll out each dough ball on a lightly floured surface into a very thin circle or oval shape.
8. 8 Combine pizza sauce and basil in a bowl; spread a thin layer of sauce over dough, leaving a 1 inch border. Scatter provolone every few inches over sauce. Fold opposite dough edges toward the middle to form a rectangle; press lightly to flatten slightly. Repeat spreading sauce and scattering provolone over dough.
9. 9 Fold each end toward the center to make a square shape. Spread with a thin layer of sauce and scatter pieces of cheese on one half. Fold in half, overlapping the edge by about 1 inch. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Repeat filling and folding (Steps 8 and 9) with remaining dough, sauce, and cheese.
10. 10 Bake in the preheated oven until very well browned, 16 to 18 minutes. Some spots may get charred, but this is fine and desirable, since scacce are traditionally cooked in very hot wood-fired ovens. Let rest before slicing and serving, 15 minutes.
