Focaccia Preparation Method

Scroll down for the step-by-step instructions, roll up your sleeves, and prepare this tasty focaccia!

Step #1: Dough Preparation

Mix the ingredients for the focaccia in a medium-sized bowl. As it’s a no-knead dough, you don’t have to knead it. However, kneading just a few times to ensure all ingredients are mixed thoroughly is a good idea. Let it sit for at least an hour at room temperature. You can use it immediately or put it in the fridge overnight.

Step #2: Press Out the Dough

Film a baking sheet on a pan and spread 1 tablespoon of olive oil evenly over the sheet. Spread the dough, patting it out until it fills the pan. Let it rest uncovered for half an hour.

Step #3: Caramelize the Onions Caramelize the onions with 2 tablespoons of butter or extra virgin olive oil. Add salt and stir occasionally. Cook for up to 40 mins.

Step #4: Top the Dough

Brush 1 or 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the dough and scatter onions on top. Add the brie and the cranberries, and the rosemary.

Step #5: Bake Bake for about 25 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.

Best known for playing Edwina Sharma in the second season of Netflix’s hit series Bridgerton, Charithra Chandran quickly stole fans’ hearts with her charm and sense of style. And now, the talented actress decided to swap her long locks for the cutest pixie cut.

A Successful Hair Experiment for Charithra Chandran

Although her character in the series was the timid little sister, it turns out that in real life, Charithra Chandran is a much bolder woman. Especially when it comes to styling her hair. For a long time, we were used to seeing her as a young lady of the ton whose hair was either intricately styled into an updo for a fashionable ball or left long and loose whenever she was alone with her sister.

But, now it’s time for Chandran to leave that stage behind, and her cropped, choppy, wet-look pixie cut, reminiscent of none other than Halle Berry’s iconic hairstyle of the early 2000s, is an absolute sight to see. The Bridgerton star debuted her new look at this year’s Veronica Beard’s fashion show in London.

The Inspiration Behind It

It’s no surprise that this magnificent look was created by top celebrity stylist Patrick Wilson. When discussing Chandran’s glamorous look for the event, he shared that the inspiration behind it “came from girls like Halle Berry, Alexa Demie, and model Grace Elizabeth.” But, that’s not all. What really captured fans’ attention was the wet-look type of finish that made Chandran look all the more young, cool, and charming.

How to Recreate the Look at Home

If you want to achieve the same level of hairstyle awesomeness as Charithra Chandran, you’ll need to have: a) the hair length and b) a few key products. You need to start by getting your hair damp, then applying a generous amount of thickening spray to build the foundation and ensure your hair holds. Then add hair oil (Patrick recommends the Kerastase Elixir Ultime L’Original Oil, but any other brand will do) and finish off with a nourishing balm. And voilà, you’ll get this dreamy Charithra Chandran-inspired hairstyle.
