For a crispier crust, try baking the focaccia directly on a preheated pizza stone.
Experiment with different toppings! Sun-dried tomatoes, olives, and sea salt all make delicious additions.
If you don't have dried rosemary, fresh rosemary works beautifully. Just be sure to chop it finely.
The dough can be made ahead of time and refrigerated overnight. Just bring it to room temperature before rolling it out.
