Plain Focaccia by Good Folks

Tasting notes of the Curator

The Plain Focaccia from Good Folks is proof that simplicity, when done right, can be extraordinary. The husband-and-wife bakers infuse each loaf with the memory of their Roman discovery—soft yet structured dough, airy pockets that cradle the richness of extra-virgin olive oil, and a crust that sings with delicate crunch. Every bite balances savory depth with a subtle sweetness from the slow fermentation, allowing the wheat’s natural character to shine. There is no distraction here, only a celebration of honest ingredients and thoughtful craft. Moist, pillowy, and aromatic, this focaccia is designed to be savored in its purest form, but also welcomes your imagination—tear it, dip it, or toast it. It is bread at its most essential, humble yet profound, a centerpiece waiting to hold your favorite flavors.

You may avail of the focaccias:

• Fresh (on next day delivery) - Available for Metro Manila clients only. Not ideal for long-haul deliveries as fresh foccacia that takes more than a day as it will not be in its best quality.
• Frozen (on 48 hr delivery) - Available for all locations and most ideal for Nationwide clients. Frozen focaccia will last the long-haul travel and is even ideal for long-term storage.

If you are a nationwide client, kindly choose Frozen.

Pairings and Suggestions

The beauty of a plain focaccia lies in its versatility.

• Olive oil & balsamic: Tear and dip for the most authentic Italian aperitivo.
• Cheese & charcuterie: Pair with burrata, mozzarella, or prosciutto for an effortless spread.
• Soups & stews: Serve alongside minestrone or tomato-based dishes to soak up rich broths.
• Sandwich base: Slice and fill with grilled vegetables, mortadella, or roasted chicken for a rustic panino.

A Roman Spark, A Local Heart

Good Folks began with a memory—of a focaccia savored on a trip to Rome, warm from the oven and alive with olive oil. What started as a passion project soon turned into gifts for friends, then a trickle of orders, and finally a beloved small-batch bakery at home. Their Plain Focaccia is a homage to that first spark: simple, communal, and deeply satisfying. It is bread made not in factories but in a home kitchen, carrying with it the heart of artisans who believe that good food is meant to be shared.

Storage Instructions

Best enjoyed fresh on the day of delivery. To store, keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, wrap well and freeze.

Reheating: From frozen, thaw first, then lightly mist with water and heat in a pre-heated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 8–10 minutes, according to preference.

Tip: If you know you’ll be storing the focaccia in the freezer for a long time, cut it into desired serving sizes before wrapping in saran or foil. This way, you only reheat the portions you need.
