How does this man not have more followers? I love all his recipes. His baguettes are the best, I’ve tried other sourdough baguettes and always come back to his, because they are the best. And I’ve never even bothered with anyone else’s hotdog buns, his are perfect, the only thing I do differently is brush with an egg wash and put poppy seeds on them before I bake them, because my husband is from Chicago and loves Chicago-style hot dog buns. I am trying his focaccia now, I changed out 100 g of the bread flour for semolina, so if it doesn’t come out right, it’s on me, but it’s looking good so far. Thank you for all your hard work and great recipes!
Thank you very much for your great feedback! I hope you enjoy the recipes and create lasting memories with your loved ones around the table while enjoying them! Thank you for your support!
My last post! : ) I just wished to inform you that I made your focaccia and it was amazing! I am so proud that the texture was perfect and taste sublime! Instead of using only white flour, I used a combo of white, spelt, kamut and whole wheat and it wasn't heavy at all. For toppings, I decided to use Greek-inspired ingredients: sautéed red onions, garlic, spinach to which I added sun-dried tomatoes, black olives, feta, dill and a bit of lemon juice. I pushed tsps of this mixture into the dough just before baking. Mmm! It was delicious! Thank you so much!
I made this focaccia yesterday and can't believe how soft this sourdough bread is. I've been searching for over a year for a really soft sourdough recipe. I can't wait to try more of your recipes. Today the cinnamon rolls! Thank you for sharing!
I made SD Focaccia yesterday with my normal SD recipe. I will try your method. Didn’t want to use the oven, it’s summer, so I split the dough in half, used pie plates and baked in the toaster oven. I’ve used sun dried tomatoes, but found they burn, as I see yours did. Thanks for the recipe, nice fluffy focaccia we use for sandwiches.
I made this recipe yesterday and today, and it came out amazing!! I switched out 100 grams of the bread flour for semolina flour, and I was nervous since I didn’t follow it exactly, but it turned out great! I chose garlic, rosemary, and Kalamata olives (and of course olive oil and salt) for my toppings. It is soooo good! Thanks again for the recipe, and I’ve said it once and will say it again, I’m shocked you don’t have more TH-cam subscribers, your recipes never fail me, you’re extremely talented, keep up the great work! 🤩
I made a Fabulous focaccia sourdough bread by following your recipe although I reduced all ingredients by 30% to make a slightly smaller bread. It was really crusty on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside! Thank you for sharing such a wonderful recipe 😋😋
Please give me the exact measure meets of your ingredients for a smaller loaf. Also your pan size you used. I have a tiny oven and would like to bake a smaller size of loaf. Thanks
@@vkash17 Hi, here is the written recipe. Just use half of the ingredients for a smaller loaf. Thank you for watching. www.akneadtobake.com/post/sourdough-focaccia
Can I use only all purpose flour in this recipe? I’m traveling to a country where it’s pretty difficult to get bread flour or pretty expensive and I will of course be traveling with my starter and baking there.
You are so gifted! If you are able to do so, would you mind sharing sourdough recipes using freshly ground whole grains? And maybe some gluten-free whole grain sourdough too? Thanks for your recipes!
Hi Dany, I started to do a sourdough starter following your method. Today is the fifth day and may I know if I can use discard instead? If so, how many grams should I put? I am new to sourdough so need your kind advice. If I can't use the discard for this focaccia recipe, can I substitute active yeast? How many grams should I need? I'm excited to try your recipe as you have good reviews. Thank you.
Hi Helen, your sourdough starter is not mature yet even for this bread, unfortunately if you use it right now you are gonna have a very dense bread… you could use the discard plus 7 grams of active yeast…if you do that the times of fermentation will be much more faster and the flavor and texture will be different but you can give it a try for sure
@@AKneadtoBake Dear Dany, Thank you for the recipe. My relatives, family and I enjoys the texture of the bread despite using active yeast. By far the best focaccia that I had baked. I baked two pans. Thank you once again. By the way, I'm from Singapore and climate is good for proofing.
@@AKneadtoBake Hi Dany, It's me again. Sorry to keep disturbing you. I need help. Today is the 8th day of the sourdough starter. It is very liquid and it's always a layer of water. I feed on 50 gm bread flour and 50 gm filtered water. What should I do to let it stay active? Thank you.
This is a very easy to follow method and I am going to give it a try in the next 30 minutes but I have one question. What is your recipe for the sourdough?
Hi David! I use a very mature sourdough, more than a 100 years old. I recently made a new one from scratch, the video will be ready soon. Basically it is equal parts of water and Flour. I use Pumpernickel flour to start the process from scratch and keep feeding for 5 days or so every day and then I start to feed only bread flour or all purpose flour. I use King Arthur flours since the protein content is higher than other flours and that helps maintaining a starter easier and stronger.
Hi! That's one great looking focaccia. Is it possible to bake on the same day (i.e proof on the counter top instead of in the fridge overnight)? If yes, how long do you suggest I proof it for.
Great video my friend! Just wondering, if I just followed a regular focaccia recipe (1st proof 30min... Second proof 1 1/2hrs) but added 200g of sourdough starter in the beginning, how would this recipe turn out?
Ok..I’m probably going to sound ignorant BUT when u say let it proof for 4 hours (for NON-overnight dough) do u mean let it proof in the refrigerator for 4 hours OR on the Counter top? Please help...thank you
Hello! I’m currently trying out your recipe, it looks really good! However my dough looks pretty wet to me, what should I do? Also, when you say leave it inside the fridge to proof, is there a min/max time for leaving it in the fridge? Worried that it might ovenproof it .... thanks!
Yi Wen Low Hi! This dough it is a high hydration dough, just make sure to follow the process and you should be fine! You can leave it In the fridge up to 72 hours if needed but I only recommend to leave it overnight. If you want to make a quicker version instead of putting it in the fridge just lest it proof in a warm place for about 4 hours or until it doubles in size instead. Thank you for watching
A Knead to Bake thank you so much for your quick reply!!! Oh, so does it matter if even after the 3rd fold my dough doesn’t look shiny? If not, how should I overcome this?
Yes you can! Substitute the sourdough starter for 14 grams of instant yeast. You will have to adjust the times on the recipe. Once you mix all your ingredients wait until the dough doubles in size (between 2-4 hours) then place it in a pan and wait another 1 before baking
I did exactly what the recipe asked. But my dough is too wet, nowhere near the dough you had so I added 100 ap 50 bread flour. Will update this haha. Update: Still turned out great!
bkrc123 it sounds like you needed to knead your dough longer or do more stethoscope and folds. In the end it is a very wet dough, you shouldn’t worry about that because you are gonna let it proof at the end in the pan. Thank you for watching!
Is it really enough to prove the dough just for 1 hour ...? I'm really confused now because so far the most recipes for sourdough focaccia call for at least 4-6 hours proofing ..... those people claim that focaccia or any kind of bread with sourdough needs more time for proofing than with yeast ...... another thing ... what other flours would you recommend? Could I use whole wheat and bread flour instead of all purpose flour? Or would it change the structure of focaccia? thank you :)
Ava Burnett it is ok, because I have a long cold proofing in the fridge. Yes you can use bread flour and whole wheat! The focaccia might be a little bit harder but I still delicious. Thank you for watching!
@@AKneadtoBakethanks a lot for your advice ... I am going try tomorrow your recipe ..... because as it turned out 5 minutes ago .... the recipe I tried today failed .. :( and it makes me sad ... cos I can bake and cook perfectly ok and I can't believe I can't make this ..... the focaccia that came out of my over right now looks like baked mud .... !!! AWFUL !!!
Hi, I would like to try this recipe. However have few questions, does the starter needs to be in peak or a discard? Also how long does the dough needs to rest in the fridge for?
Nice, but incorporating the herbs and sun dried tomatoes into the dough instead of on the top will ensure a better taste and no need to waste and pick burnt stuff off the top when it’s finished.
It doesn’t matter continue with the process and bake it, there are many factors that could be wrong just finish it and you can tell me later what happened. Good luck
@@AKneadtoBake I let it ferment for 8,5 hours at room temperature and big bubbles appeared on the surface. Then I continued following your recipe. Focaccia was tasty but it was very hard to scrape it from the bottom of the pan. According to my experience of backing bread butter helps better to avoid sticking. Thanks a lot for a recipe )
Your starter with 20% inoculation really made focaccia dough double in size in an hour? Given a short first bulk it had I find it amazing. I can see a lot of people are going to fail following your recipe.
1 hour? Where did you get that from? I work the dough with stretch and folds for about 2 hours then a long cold fermentation overnight then 2 hours to come to room temperature and then final rise. There’s not such thing as 1 hour
Yes after an almost 18 hours of proofing but you can adjust the times to your own conditions, perhaps I should have said “for 1 hour or until it doubles in size” thank you for the clarification
A Knead to Bake yeah I think that was part of it. Pulled out of fridge for two hours but it may have needed more time to rise. I noticed it was not too gassy after 15hrs fermenting in the fridge.
@@AKneadtoBake so when you thaw it, how long should it proof at room temp before you bake it? Plus, I imagine one can freeze your lovely think crust pizza dough as well?
The tomatoes did get toasty, if you don’t like that texture (which I like) you can put fresh tomatoes instead and they will not get that toasty. Thank you for watching!
Second time I've tried this recipe and both times the middle is uncooked, kind of gummy. This time I cooked it 10 minutes longer, no different. Thought something was wrong when the dough wouldn't take dimples, too runny. Thought my starter was good, used it just after it peaked. Disappointed again.
Erik Young sounds like you have more than one problem, if your dough doesn’t take dimples it is under proof and the dough needs more structure. The undercook issue sounds weird if you are baking at the same temp, just like it in until it is cooked through. Thank you for watching!

Erik Young sounds like you have more than one problem, if your dough doesn’t take dimples it is under proof and the dough needs more structure. The undercook issue sounds weird if you are baking at the same temp, just like it in until it is cooked through. Thank you for watching!
One last question: Can we use this dough to make pizza? Kill 2 birds with 1 stone... ; )
Yes of course!
