  • Freshly baked focaccia is the foundation of many things, including one of the greatest sandwiches I've ever made! And look at that cross-section at 5:55. An unbelievably simple dough making and baking process, then all the right meats, cheese, and vegetables and come together for a symbiotic relationship that is ready to make the angels cry...the ultimate homemade focaccia sandwich appears right before our eyes.

      I'm sure if Imperial actually had a unit of measurement that allowed for a similar accuracy to the gram, people would use it as well, but seeing as the smallest common weight measurement in imperial is the ounce (not to be confused with the fluid ounce, of course) most Americans like me who cook appreciate the gram. Have you ever heard of the drachm (aka dram, 1/16 of an ounce or roughly 1.7718 grams) or the grain (64.79891 mg)? If this stubborn country would switch we'd all be much better off

The cost comes in on the stand mixer, large plastic fermentation container and those sheet pans, and a mill for fresh milled whole wheat flour ( I recommend the Mockmill attachment for the KA Stand Mixer for infrequent users of fresh milled flour). The nice thing is though, that baking gear, especially the KA Stand mixer and a pair of those half-sheet pans will last a decade or two and you will use them *all the time*.

    In my experience you can short cut quite a bit of this recipe with no discernable difference by just mixing all ingredients in your mixer right off the bat. You can also skip the slap and fold part and just proof it right in the mixer bowl without turning it out at all. I like to get my fermentation process started at room temp for a few hours or until I start to see a bit of action before transferring to the fridge.

    • @raskbell
      @raskbell Před 9 měsíci +1

      I agree with this. In my case the dough ends up more like a batter after the mixer anyways, so the slap and fold only seems to make a mess vs giving the dough any real structure. Since it final proof and bakes in a baking pan, the lack of structure really doesn't make much of a difference in my experience any ways.

      I'm just happy he knows what it is. For those that don't, and wanna try it - bread, olive oil, and zaatar. Tear a little piece of bread and dip it in the olive oil, then into the zaatar. If you like the taste, you can expand from there! Simple and delicious.

    • @roberttrifts2737
      @roberttrifts2737 Před 2 lety

      True story. This is the best foccacia recipe. The reason it's so good? It takes real time to mix, lots of time to cold ferment in the fridge, time to rise again. Josh's best recipes take time. This is something that many people don't want to plan ahead and prepare for. But if you do put the effort and planning in? The finished product is *totally* worth it.

      Red Star Instant Yeast. You can get it in one pound packages from Costco or Amazon. Get a suitable glass Jar with a flip over wire lid/retention cap as your yeast jar. Store it on the door of your freezer and it will always be ready for you: next day, next week, next month or next year. We have a ~1lb jar in the freezer on the go at all times and 2 more pounds freeze dried and packaged in my basement. If you are a baker, you have yeast.
