Thanks for visiting! Actually, to be fair, neither Deb of Smitten Kitchen, nor Claudia Fleming can actually be credited for a focaccia with grapes & rosemary. In fact, fruit focaccias with olive oil and rosemary are an Italian tradition, and honestly, I was inspired by a recipe I made years ago for an apricot & cherry focaccia. In any case, I didn’t base myself on any of those recipes. I just made a few of fruit focaccias along the way until I came up with the right ratio of ingredients that worked for me.

Deb had adapted it from Claudia Fleming. Nice work-I guess grape and rosemary focaccia is a much more intuitive combination than I would have imagined if several people are independently coming up with this recipe.

Thanks, Helene! I use a Canon Rebel XSi with a 50 mm lens.

This is an amazing recipe. Love focaccia, especially dessert focaccia. If you have a moment could you tell me what camera you like to use for your food photos?

maybe! the concord vines growing in my yard produce grapes with rather noticeable seeds. maybe I'll make this and just crunch through them.

I didn't even notice the seeds, actually. I later made a concord grape & peanut butter crumble with several more bunches of Concord grapes, and for that recipe, because I was using so many grapes, I did peel & cook them to draw out the seeds. The seeds were really quite tiny though. Maybe the Concord grapes I got were seedless?

is it much bother with the seeds in the concord grapes?

Carbo-laden waistlines? You and me both sister. I have finally come to the realization that I'm never gonna be a totally toned and skinny minnie type-o-gal because I do indeed, have a food blog. And it's laced and stitched and splattered with carbs. I love em. And I'm okay with that. I even bared my wine belly at the beach the other day, owned that shit and didn't even try to suck it in. Scary? Yes. As scary as pink tights and block stockings while trying to look graceful and fabulous? Probably not (I have about zero grace - walls have met my face more times than I care to admit. Simply walking around them)..... But damn it felt good.

PS. Your concord grape rosemary focaccia would also feel good. You bring that, I'll bring the vino. Yes?

So glad to be a part of FBC with you!! xo!

I loved your story! Your focaccia brought back memories of the ones my paternal grandma used to make. She called it Schiaccata a l'Uva (focaccia squashed with grapes). Thanks for the memory and now I have to make it and eat all of it too.
