Instructions

1. Take the dough out of the fridge for 15 minutes beforehand.
2. Dust a wooden board with flour, spread it with your palm and place the dough on it.
3. Roll out the dough with a rolling pin, keeping it neither too flat nor too thin.
4. Press half of the olives into the dough, at least 4 cm apart.
5. Fold and roll the dough by hand to cover all the olives.
6. Preheat the oven to 250 degrees.
7. Press the remaining olives into the dough, cover them again, then gently press them further in with the rolling pin; a couple of olive tops may still show.
8. Line a pizza tray with baking paper and place the ball of dough on it.
9. With a sharp knife, cut a slit on the right side of the dough ball, opening slightly without cutting all the way through.
10. Bake for at least one hour, until browned on top and cooked through.
11. Let the bread rest for 15 to 20 minutes.
12. Mix a generous amount of extra virgin olive oil with at least two tablespoons of balsamic vinegar in a small bowl for dipping or drizzling.
