Product Review: Chebe Focaccia Bread Mix

Posted on | January 17, 2012 | 2 Comments

Another winner from Chebe!

Chebe sent me this focaccia mix to test, and it was pretty tasty. To prepare this gluten free flatbread, I added olive oil, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, eggs, and milk. I kneaded it by hand until all the ingredients were integrated and the dough felt fairly smooth. I pressed the dough evenly into a greased 9 inch pan and baked it for 35 minutes. When slightly warm, I cut the bread into wedges.

The result was a soft and flavorful flatbread that my gluten eating family gobbled up with our pasta dinner. This focaccia looked great- nice and brown on top without looking overdone. It had a nice texture and mouth feel, but was not crumbly or coarse like other gluten free breads can be. The flavor was pretty intense as well- lots of rosemary and basil aroma and flavor that paired well with the sharp cheddar cheese. This is definitely not a bland gluten free bread.

It was really good warm but stiffened up to chewy and tough when cool making it a bit wasteful if not eaten right away. Otherwise, good flavor.
