BAKED FOCACCIA SANDWICH

Steps:

• Biga:.
• Combine all the ingredients in a medium-sized bowl, cover and let the mixture rest, at room temperature, for about 12 hours, or overnight (I usually leave it closer to 24 hours).
• Dough:.
• In a large bowl, or the bowl of a mixer, combine the biga with all the dough ingredients except 1 cup of the flour, stirring to mix well.
• Add remaining flour 1/4 cup at a time, until the dough becomes cohesive, then knead by hand or machine, until it's springy, about 5 minutes (or a bit longer by hand).
• Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it, and allow it to rise for about 60 minutes; it should just about double in bulk.
• Assembly and Baking:.
• Gently deflate the dough, divide it in half and transfer it to a lightly greased work surface.
• Cover it, and let it rest for 15 minutes to allow the gluten to relax.
• Working with half the dough at a time, roll it into an 18 x 13-inch rectangle.
• Don't worry if it's not exactly 18 x 13, you can stretch it once it's in the pan.
• Transfer the dough to an olive-oiled half-sheet (18 x 13-inch) pan.
• Cover the pan and let the dough rest for 10 minutes.
• After its rest, stretch the dough with your fingers to the edges of the pan; this may take some doing, but keep gently working it until it covers the bottom of the pan.
• If it is entirely too resistant, cover and let rest a little longer.
• Layer half the provolone atop the crust, then all the salami.
• Top the meat with the cup of freshly grated Parmesan or Asiago, then the rest of the provolone.
• Roll the other half of the dough into a rectangle large enough to cover the filled crust.
• Drape it over the filling and seal it to the bottom crust all the way around.
• Cut a small hole in the center to allow any steam to escape.
• Cover the focaccia and let it rise for 30 minutes, while you preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Bake the focaccia for 20 minutes.
• Remove it from the oven, sprinkle it with the half cup of Parmesan or Asiago, and return it to the oven.
• Bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the focaccia is golden brown.
• Remove it from the oven and as soon as possible use a large spatula to transfer it to a rack to cool (to prevent the bottom from becoming soggy).
• Slice into generous rectangles to serve.
