I think 10 years from now when I retire, and have 3 days to do absolutely nothing, I will make it! For now, I will thank the store for making it for me!
Nobody EVER puts enough oil on. Culinary school instructor, baking Foccacia - "If it feels like you've put too much oil on it, good. Now add some more." That's why John's Foccacia was "ciabatta-like." It shouldn't have been - but he skipped the proper olive oil bath prior to hitting the oven. (After poking holes and adding herbs, etc, prior to the oven, add enough oil that you can see it pooling in the holes and starting to come up the sides of the dough. You'll end up with the butteriest foccacia known to man.)
This right here. I make 2 dozen loaves of high hydration (84%) focaccia every week. Those suckers are oiled till it is almost spilling over the edge of the pan.
O.k., just took it out of the oven, and of the numerous focaccias I have made in my life, this is the best of all!!! Finally, a focaccia i can count on for sandwiches, dips (crostini, bruschetta, olive oil and balsamic, etc.), and one of my favorite sandwiches, grilled salmon with tarragon mayo! Thank you, Chef!
Good recipe and dough shaping but here's some constructive criticism: Your rosemary will lose MOST of its aroma if you bake it like this. Take a small vessel add olive oil and drown the rosemary in the oil for 10 minutes. Then use your fingers or a tiny spoon to spread it on top. The amazing smells will transfer into the oil and give the dough underneath a wonderful flavor instead of evaporating away.
Focaccia with olives and onions, and a sprinkle of oregano is my favorite. You can even make a NY Sicilian style pizza with this dough. Just add a little tomato sauce before baking. In the last 5-10 minutes add your mozzarella on top and melt it in the oven.
I absolutely LOVE focaccia. It's my favorite type of bread to eat and bake!! I have been making no knead focaccia for over a year. I like to put some toppings on top like cherry tomatoes, olives, etc. Also, I love to make pizza with this dough. It's fluffier and crispy on the bottom.... just heavenly.
He’s got the right idea. Homemade bread is the best thing to bring to a potluck because 1) people go crazy for it and 2) it’s very inexpensive to make. 🙂
A guy who works for my daughter helped me with my real estate hunt, and what made him happiest as a thank you is that now and again, I have her give him a loaf of homemade bread of one kind or another! She says he inhales it.
Made this for Xmas spaghetti dinner and it turned out great! My husband had watched me making it and was truly amazed at how delicious it was. Thank you, Chef John, for another fabulous recipe and the video, which made it immensely easier to create.
I absolutely love your speech inflections (something strangely comforting),how knowledgeable you are, and how you make cooking approachable! You’re amazing. Thanks for what you do
One of the best focacias I ever made was a otherwise failed batch that was almost like a batter. I poured it into a rimmed baking sheet. It was excellent.
I started this recipe last night. The first set of envelope folds were a mess! It is a batter like consistency. . I'm going to bake it off anyway. Fingers crossed.....
I make high hydration focaccia all the time. This turned out great, the dimpling at the end prevented your focaccia from forming a giant air bubble, so it did something. Also, a cake pan is great for making focaccia.
I really love this take on Focaccia bread it really looks very tasty! Since I'm semi retired I should have plenty of time to attempt to make it. And the little "minimalist" prosciutto sandwich you made at the end had to have been a taste of Italian heaven ; )
Fun to watch. I like that you covered the dough with aluminum foil. If you haven't explained the reason in other videos, viewers might like to know. I no longer use ordinary large-grain salt (like Maldon) on top of breads because it dissolves if not promptly eaten. I prefer pretzel salt which lasts a day or two longer (but not forever).
I love a two-day bread recipe, especially one that is for breakfast. This would be great served at lunch, afternoon snack or with almost any dinner. Thank you Chef John.
I miss your no knead bread. I love that bread but the link doesn't exist any longer I remembered most of it but not all. Hope you can give out the recipe again. It is very rustic and feels great when shaping. Thank you
I love how Chef John is so good at making me want to try out most of his recipes, and equally great at convincing me to never spend half a lifetime baking his excellent Focaccia. Supermarket/Bakery it is!
We called it white pizza. Good with anything. Try with chocolate inside while is still warm. To die for . The contrast of sweetness and the salt is unbelievable. Ciao
Thanks for the sharing! I have made focaccia many times before but the outcomes were not fluffy. All ingredients and procedures are similar except the extra long resting time. I think the clue lies with 12-14 hours raising in the beginning! I will definitely give it a try!
honestly when Chef John showed us the baked bread and cross section, my first thought was "this looks like deep dish pizza crust without the pizza". As soon as I'm done with keto I want to make this!
Your sense of humor is great - "...from another planet or America", Ha! Love it Chef! I have tried several focaccia recipes in the past 6 months with not-so-great satisfaction. I am going to make this tonight/tomorrow.
The snobs talk a lot about it but never explain the effects hydration. Thank you for bringing it up. And thank you for bringing up the long proofing time, too. So worth it. I feel like you’ve just kicked up my game some more. Pretty soon I’m going to be a dough snob, too. 😊
I bet doing the final bake in a cast iron would be really good as well. Similar to Serious Eats' Foolproof Pan Pizza. Maybe half the dough at the end for two separate Focaccias
One of my two favorite bread recipes: www.seriouseats.com/easy-no-knead-olive-rosemary-pistachio-focaccia-kenji-recipe I've never actually put in the olives and nuts, so it's even closer to Chef John's.
I highly recommend watching the videos of the Chain Baker. He's dealt with many extremely sticky doughs. It's exciting to see you make a bread like this as well Chef John! I got a similar chill vibe from both of you, neither making it sound difficult to make this.
Yes, and Chain Baker specializes in breads,so it's never a "let's see what happens" kind of thing. Sometimes he goes into the why of things to such a degree that I can't even keep up! Always beautiful breads.
Watching this video simply made my weekend a lot better! You are awesome buddy and always find a way to make your recipes easy to follow, on point, as well as very entertaining to watch!!MAGICAL indeed! Everything I have tried so far, following your Amazing recipes , has come out Amazing and perfect every single time! Thank you🙏
Gorgeous - thanks for the demo. I note the comments on the olive oil added before baking (big thumbs up from me 👍), but if you're baking your own, make it how you like it!
I was in the Italian alps and there was a focaccia truck on the side of the road with a little oven. The dough was almost like thick pancake batter. The baker poured it into the tray. It was really good, trying this tomorrow.
I will be giving it a try soon. I also love lettuce and tomatoes on my sandwiches. My tomatoes are just now ripening in my garden. I’m not sure why they took so long this year.
I feel the same way IF I want to eat it right away, but if I just want to have it any old time, I know the time spent is mostly waiting time, not me actually doing anything time. And honestly, texture and flavor are genuinely improved with time when it comes to bread.
This looks amazing and I enjoyed watching YOU make it but I don't think I have that kind of commitment to one loaf of bread that my young ones would devour in 5 minutes. 😆
It makes good hamburger buns as well. I just made one of these today and did it in 5 hours and yes, it did not have quite as many holes but I was hungry and did not want to wait till tomorrow :o) I also did a two hour rest before adding any olive oil. Ive done it both ways and can hardly tell the difference.
New baker and sub here. I had the instructions for Bon Appetit's recipe all ready to go for tomorrow, but then I ran across this video. I think I'm going to try your version. It looks insanely delicious.
The dimples on the top are made so you can fill them with 50-50 olive oil water mixture, if you don't pour that in before baking(like this recipe) then they aren't necessary, though I would definitely recommend pour some amount of that on, it really make the flavour stronger
Travelling the Amalfi coast in 2018 I ordered a bread that I seem to remember looking like this. It had buffalo mozzarella on it and nothing else. I was a bit sceptic and thought that it might be a bit dry and or boring - turned out it was the highlight of the day!! :)
One thing that would have turned it into focaccia for you was that you forgot to pour olive oil on the top to fill up the holes BEFORE baking. That gives it the typical caramelised surface.
That would be fantastic dipped in a high-quality EVOO and Balsamic Vinegar, served with a platter of various cheeses, some green olives, pepperoncini, various cuts of Italian Dry Salami, Panchetta, meats, etc.

I have been doing basically the same for quite sometime with sourdough starter instead of dry yeast and less oil and less water (~65% hydration). Very similar results.
Recently saw an ad that said check out a recipe from John... After I double checked it was you I had to brag about your channel in the Facebook post. 🤣
You can also pop into fridge after mixing for 24-48 hours to slow ferment. When u take out of fridge stretch and fold once and place into an olive oiled greased 9x13 Lloyd pan. Let rise for two to four hours until it’s doubled in sized. Dimple, sprinkle on Maldon salt. Bake @425 for 25 minutes or so. Take out of pan and place on rack to keep the crispy bottom. The fridge ferment really changes the game. You will have a lot of bubbles.
He mixed the dough in a bowl, then transferred to a counter for stretching and folding, then a baking dish for more stretching and folding, AND THEN the final pan. That seems like a lot of excess washing up! Do you think it would work to just stretch-n-fold a few times directly in the mixing bowl?
This is totally a recipe I would remember, gather ingredients for, set on the counter, open the video... and then rediscover that it takes nearly 2 days to make. So until that day comes, I will remember the video.
Italian standards meh; American standards that's an amazing recipe! love the detail and description of the video.. like wow remembering why i subbed to you. moto bene!!!
I've been obsessing on a recipe for a savory bread casserole with focaccia, cheese, tomatoes, and eggs. But, in NYC, I can't find focaccia anywhere. I'm going to make this so I can really own the aforementioned. A little observation on this video, the dough after the second fold/knead is shaped as something reminding me of the talking trees in Wizard of Oz, haha.
I think 10 years from now when I retire, and have 3 days to do absolutely nothing, I will make it! For now, I will thank the store for making it for me!
Or look for a focaccia that takes less time.

The best advice is always in the comments. Now I definitely want to try this.
Maybe it was enough, because he designed this recipe for that outcome, as it's not a traditional focaccia recipe
Makes me wonder how this would fare using schmaltz.
This right here. I make 2 dozen loaves of high hydration (84%) focaccia every week. Those suckers are oiled till it is almost spilling over the edge of the pan.
That's exactly what they did at least in this sneak peak in Italy. The dough almost bathed in olive oil.
th-cam.com/video/uEKzIshoYiM/w-d-xo.html
I am mesmerized by the stretch and fold part. By the third stretch and fold the dough is so strong! Gluten is amazing.
O.k., just took it out of the oven, and of the numerous focaccias I have made in my life, this is the best of all!!!

The only proper amount of rosemary is....., none. To some of us, it is a most awful, most bitter herb.
@@closetpicker your opinion is invalid!! I got no thyme for ppl who don’t like rosemary
@@MacabreMosaic I see what ya did there 😏

Oh yes, focaccia dough in a 9"x13" baking dish with pizza toppings on top was a fabulous accident of drunken baking.
This is added to my already long list of stuff I absolutely need to cook. 😂👍
Ikr....same...the list I started (and keeping adding to 😁.!) during 'The Great Lockdown' 🤣
Thanks, chef! I've got an Italian guy who works with me and he always brings homemade focaccia to the potlucks. Never gives up his recipe. Thanks!

For anyone without a specialty pan, I make this in a glass casserole dish. It works great! I do have to adjust the size of the recipe to fit the pan.
And I used one of my cast iron pans and it was great.
TY!
I used a 9 by 13 metal pan just this week. There is nothing special or expensive about it.
I tried using a Pyrex dish the first time I made it and somehow, drowned in olive oil, it stuck..... Idk how I managed it but I did
I made your focaccia recipe. It was out of this world! Worth the time. You are my favorite chef. Thank you so much.
I love Chef John! He's funny, & clearly loves cooking & food, & his recipes always work. Thanks Chef!

One of the best focacias I ever made was a otherwise failed batch that was almost like a batter. I poured it into a rimmed baking sheet. It was excellent.
Yeah, it's the only bread I've made with over 100% hydration. Most of the others are closer to 80%.
Drop the recipe :) would love to try it
I came here to post that I would end up making this bread accidentally when I try making something else but mess it up. Guess it’s true …
I started this recipe last night. The first set of envelope folds were a mess! It is a batter like consistency. . I'm going to bake it off anyway. Fingers crossed.....
@@starfarms664 mine also became very batter like, i would guess it is because i am at a high altitude
I make high hydration focaccia all the time. This turned out great, the dimpling at the end prevented your focaccia from forming a giant air bubble, so it did something. Also, a cake pan is great for making focaccia.
I really like the 12-14 hr rise. Mix and sit. Then the next day a few easy hours of folding and waiting. The bread is so versatile.
Chef John,
i was smiling just watching you play with that dough. looking forward to trying it myself. thanks and cheers!

Mozz baked on it, or as a sandwich ingredient? (Both sound great.)
I made this today and it was the best thing I've ever baked. I'm making salami sandwiches for dinner.
what about using this bread to re-bake as a cheesy garlic bread? i think it might be a fluffy cheesy garlic bread. i think i might try it!
I bought a sandwich through the window of a train in Italy from a woman on the platform. Ham, butter and the most amazing bread I’ve ever eaten.
That's how I make my Ciabatta bread. This would make great rolls too.
That's what I do. The rolls are great.
I have found that a few coil folds make the most airy and best crumb for focaccia, it also makes the dough much more workable
One thing that would have turned it into focaccia for you was that you forgot to pour olive oil on the top to fill up the holes BEFORE baking. That gives it the typical caramelised surface.
"No-Knead Focaccia Bread" - Good, something I can make quick and easy.
You had me until the third fold.. I'm just gonna buy them. :p Cheers
That would be fantastic dipped in a high-quality EVOO and Balsamic Vinegar, served with a platter of various cheeses, some green olives, pepperoncini, various cuts of Italian Dry Salami, Panchetta, meats, etc.

"No-Knead?!" Really?! Chef John folded that dough as much as you would a croissant! That counts as kneading! ---Best! :)
Always enjoy your recipes, Chef John!
Looks like a perfect compliment to the shrimp scampi I'm making for the parents this weekend. There'll be plenty of juices to soak up on the plate 😉.
Looks like a great recipe for a holiday party! Thank you!
Hi! What a beautiful picture you've on your profile just decided to stop by and say hi ☺️. I hope my compliment is appreciated
Thank you chef John 😄 I'd like to ask you to please provide the flour/water measurements in grams since that makes it much easier to get it right.
I just convert it online. It's pretty simple.
The olive oil, too. 👍🏻 Anymore I add a little olive oil to the white bread dough. It really gives it some moisture to last a little longer.
Hi! What a beautiful picture you've on your profile just decided to stop by and say hi ☺️. I hope my compliment is appreciated

Wow
Looks Amazing.

slice. lather in garlic butter and bake for 10 mins. THE BEST garlic bread ever. I promise.
Recently saw an ad that said check out a recipe from John... After I double checked it was you I had to brag about your channel in the Facebook post. 🤣

You can also pop into fridge after mixing for 24-48 hours to slow ferment. When u take out of fridge stretch and fold once and place into an olive oiled greased 9x13 Lloyd pan. Let rise for two to four hours until it’s doubled in sized. Dimple, sprinkle on Maldon salt. Bake @425 for 25 minutes or so. Take out of pan and place on rack to keep the crispy bottom. The fridge ferment really changes the game. You will have a lot of bubbles.
This is definitely one of your best recipes..... That's all I have to say
John get a Swedish bread whisk for mixing they are awesome.
Now I want the recipe for that dipping sauce!
Gotta try this!
He mixed the dough in a bowl, then transferred to a counter for stretching and folding, then a baking dish for more stretching and folding, AND THEN the final pan. That seems like a lot of excess washing up! Do you think it would work to just stretch-n-fold a few times directly in the mixing bowl?
Wow chef john where'd ya git the cool porcelain pan? Looks like a 50's Era general purpose medical
Pan....outstanding!
