Rosemary & Olives Focaccia by Good Folks

Tasting notes of the Curator

The Rosemary & Olives Focaccia is an ode to tradition, where the simplicity of bread is elevated by herbs and fruit of the land. Good Folks take their signature olive oil–rich dough and adorn it with sprigs of rosemary and plump olives, baking them into the golden crust. The result is a loaf that bursts with aroma even before the first bite—the piney, resinous fragrance of rosemary harmonizing with the savory-salty bite of olives. The crumb remains pillowy, each airy pocket carrying whispers of herbal freshness and olive depth. Every slice is a tapestry of rustic flavors that recall sunlit Mediterranean tables, where bread is not a side but a centerpiece. This focaccia feels both earthy and elegant, humble yet celebratory, ready to enrich your meals with character and soul.

Bread of Sun and Sea

Rosemary and olives have long symbolized abundance and resilience in Mediterranean culture, celebrated in both ritual and daily life. This focaccia carries that heritage into the present—aromatic herbs representing remembrance and healing, olives standing for peace and prosperity. For Good Folks, weaving these ingredients into their bread is more than a flavor choice; it is a way of sharing the timeless spirit of the Mediterranean. Each loaf is a reminder that food can bridge memories of faraway lands with the intimacy of a homemade table.

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.
