Why immerse the raisins?

Since the raisins are dry if not immersed, they will absorb the liquid from the batter which will make the product in the oven less humid and it is not what we want. Therefore, immerse the raisins before adding them to the recipe will prevent this from happening.

What is a focaccina?

  • There are basically two different types of focaccine, British and American.
  • When preparing the American focaccina, fat is mixed very minimal.
  • American focaccins also have a higher ratio between Floro fat compared to British focaccins.
  • A British focaccia has fewer butter and less sugar, because once a focaccina is cooked, it spreads it with a good spoonful of butter or jam. The apricot jam goes wonderfully with the focaccine.
  • British focaccins are generally simple without additions, except perhaps the occasional raisins or the rebel.
