## Steps

1. In a bowl, combine the plain flour, wholemeal flour and red rice flour, and mix well.
2. Add the yeast and gradually pour in the water, mixing as you go. Add the salt, pour in the rest of the water and stir with a spoon, then knead by hand for a few minutes.
3. Shape the dough into a ball, cover the bowl and leave to rise at room temperature. (30 min)
4. Do a set of strengthening folds: fold the dough over itself and pull it towards you. Repeat a few times, cover and leave to rise. (20 min)
5. Repeat the folding and 20-minute rise twice more.
6. After the final fold, leave the dough to rise. (180 min)
7. Dust the work surface with durum flour, place the dough on it and stretch it out with your fingers.
8. Transfer the dough to an oiled 30x40 cm tin, spreading it out gently.
9. Pour the mixed water, salt and olive oil over the surface, spread evenly and dimple with your fingers.
10. Bake in a fan oven preheated to 240°C for about 15-20 minutes. (18 min)
11. When the focaccia is golden and slightly crisp on top, remove from the oven and serve warm.
