Macaroni Grill used to serve an AMAZING square-cut bread in the early 90s. Anyone know what it is?

It tasted heavenly and was kind of like a focaccia bread. I'm NOT talking about the round rosemary bread which they now serve. The current rosemary bread replaced the original (which is the one I'm trying to find the recipe for). Does ANYONE out there remember this bread?? Everyone I ask always thinks I'm crazy! No one seems to recall the original bread!

Macaroni Grill Foccacia Recipe

Ingredients:

9 tablespoons Olive oil (divided use)

3 cups unsifted all-purpose flour

3/4 cup unsifted semolina flour

1/2 teaspoon salt (divided)

1 1/2 tablespoon quick-rising dry yeast

1 1/2 cup hot (between 120 and 130 degrees) milk

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves





Directions:



Pour a scant tablespoon of the olive oil into a 9"-square cake pan; spread evenly to cover bottom and sides. Place all-purpose flour, semolina flour, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and all of the yeast in the bowl of a mixer fitted with a dough hook. (The mixing can be done by hand as well.) Blend ingredients on medium speed. Reduce speed to low and = slowly add hot milk. Raise the speed to medium and continue mixing for 5 minutes (knead about 8 to 10 minutes by hand). Sprinkle bottom of cake pan with a little flour. Remove dough from bowl and spread out evenly in pan. Cover with a towel and let rest for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Remove towel. Brush dough with 1 to 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Sprinkle top with additional salt and rosemary. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and drizzle with remaining oil.
