How to Make the Best Focaccia Bread at home

[@aditiparikh6680]

Got it perfect on the first try!! Told all my friends! Trust me this is the best recipe on the internet !!

[@techguy67]

Would you mind sharing the pic I have tried today however it was not properly cooked inside 😬

[@moidhassan5552]

Same

[@moidhassan5552]

@@techguy67 I am assuming you took it out of the oven because it had gotten a brown outside. But it is quite possible that it got cooked quickly, try cooking at a little lower temperature. You can always get the brown color by increasing the temperature for the last 4-5 mins.

[@uncleivanovich]

But, if you use much less yeast and go with a long raise, you'll get a longer shelf life and a more digestible focaccia. Nevertheless it looks great.

I recommend checking out Vincenzo’s plate my friend

- 335g of water warmed to 110F - 9g of yeast with spoon of floor - 450g AP flour - 9g salt - 9g olive oil Rest 20, stretch and fold, rest 30 minutes between 4 sets 9x13 baking pan with a lot of oil Work dough into pan, rest if needed Proof 60 minutes Dimple then add olive oil water mixture (20g each) Add toppings 450 F degree oven for about 25 minutes I’m sure there are comments that already have these instructions but this helps me. Thanks Ethan!

[@lh5670]

LOVE this recipe! We use it all the time. We like to add 1-2 cloves of minced garlic to the 20g of oil when we start making the dough. That way, the garlic infuses the oil and it is super good when we drizzle it on at the end before baking.

[@shreyaskadam9859]

Dough is breaking when I stretch help

[@bluebaconjake405]

@@shreyaskadam9859 Be gentle and let the dough rest properly

[@megha1806]

Never ever have I followed a recipe to the T as I followed this. And it’s a success. I am giddy with excitement. It came out beautifully crispy. It kind of got stuck to the pan but it’s ok. Will make one more tomorrow and add garlic and start praying. Thank you oh good sir. 🙏🏼

[@normanegrete7975]

Can you just be the ONLY person showing/walking us through ALL the breads-ALL THE BREADS. You are awesome at explaining and I want to say thank you for creating this video!

[@MrAbstractj]

I made it and it’s really good. It’s certainly will test your patience. My first proof did not come out stretchy, but I suspect it’s the quality of my flour because after the third proof the dough was much better. This is my go to recipe for focaccia going forward. Thank you!

[@mundanethings208]

I messed up the first time (measured the water wrong and ended up with waayyy too much hydration), but the second time i made it, the end product was p e r f e c t Thank you for the recipe

[@shaunabath]

This is probably one of the best looking focaccia that doesn't needs an overnight rise!

[@laja6108]

I love that you use gram measurements and mix by hand, perfect video for me 🙏🏽

[@lh5670]

I would also add that this bread freezes wonderfully! I cut it into pieces and when we’re ready to eat it, I just pop into into toaster oven (or real oven) at 450 for @5-6 mins. Tastes just as it did when fresh. SO good!

[@krissyk2251]

First time making focaccia, I was nervous as heck but this recipe turned out perfect! I didn't use enough olive oil on the bottom so mine did stick to the pan a bit but overall it turned out amazing! Crunchy on the outside, nice and full of air on the inside, it was yummy. Such an awesome, easy recipe thank you!

[@AnastasiaSilvi]

335 gr water 9gr Yeast Spoonful of flour 455gr flour 9gr salt 9gr Olive oil And a shit ton more olive oil 20gr water + 20gr olive oil

[@jjchayapong6942]

Thanks for your sum ❤️

[@lvk2353]

Thanks! And let me just add: Bake on middle rack 25 min at 450F/233C :)

[@LucAga92]

I love Ethan recipies, but I think you should put mesaurments in the description so that I don't have to watch the entire video every time :) Thanks

[@MrChazz965]

How many grams in a shit ton ?

[@ethanravestein2057]

Can anyone convert this into tbsp and cups?

[@sternits]

I made your focaccia recipe and it was amazing. I added olives, sun dried tomatoes, and roasted garlic to the top. Thanks.

[@victoriarath9658]

Why am I awake at 4 am watching bread making on KZbin? I’m making this today, I have to. I can’t unsee it. Cant wait to see how it comes out. Thank you for this easy to follow recipe!

[@OliviaIsRolling1]

I have made this recipe twice now and can confirm it’s the real deal, so good!!

[@EthanChlebowski]

I’m glad to hear it!

[@nusabudiman]

Thanks bro. Just made it today. Followed your recipe with extra bit of olive oil and it turned out amazing. Thin and crusty outside with pillowy and fluffy inside. Simple and easy recipe with a perfect result. This recipe is a keeper!

[@ra0333]

Made this few weeks ago and came out perfect. Made two versions, one was rosemary and the other was tomatoes and pesto. Making a bunch of them as Christmas gifts. Cheers

[@slsiaw]

Made this couple days ago 1st attempt was miserable as my all purpose flour was not good enough. 2nd attempt bought bread flour instead and was well rewarded. Thank you for sharing this recipe Ethan, was the best focaccia I had. Glad I tried again with bread flour.

[@andrianatsingi8608]

try it and its the exact same! so crusty outside and soft inside. 450 f is 230 C but my oven's max was 200 C so it took 10 minutes longer, but still was as gold as in the picture of the recipe. Thank you Ethan!

[@vaulmartinjr5005]

I had been curious about making focaccia for years now and finally got up the nerve to try it. What drew me to this recipe was the thickness and it did not disappoint and i will make it again. Thank you for sharing and for being so thorough and explaining not only the steps, but why each one is necessary.

[@bv2365]

I like how you make recipes so approachable and simple to beginner home cooks like me with your method of teaching

[@annewatson4786]

I just make this -topped it with fresh rosemary and kosher salt-it turned out great!!!

[@darkerthanblackk1]

Enjoy your videos. I’ve had some great success with the few recipes I’ve tried. I made this focaccia and it turned out to be an oily brick. I measured everything, used same ingredients. Not sure what I could have done differently.

[@donnacarrington3748]

I tried this recipe today and it came out perfect, crusty on the outside and moist on the inside. THE BEDT ONE I EVER DID DELICIOUS

[@umrumr9453]

...Just made some focaccia - toppings included: fresh Rosemarie, grape tomatoes, feta cheese, black olives and Rosemarie infused EVOO; well hands-down, your recipe, method of kneading and resting, delivered the most delicious focaccia I ever made; your recipe shall be part of my recipe repertoire.

[@elaine_2570]

Tried this recipe yesterday and I can honestly say this is the best recipe out there. I have tried other methods and this is by far the easiest with the best result. This recipe is a keeper!

[@emilyrandall9776]

You inspired me to try this today! Light as a cloud, and tasty. Topped with sun-dried tomatoes, fried shallots and rosemary,

[@nopethanks8316]

ive made this a few times and it is always excellent!!!!

[@D1-Hater]

Absolute beginner here, can I know which (top/bottom) heating element you used? I’m not sure what he means by bake

[@jeanhunter739]

After trying 5 different recipes online, yours is hands down the best! Great crust from the EVOO/H2O emulsion. Thank you!

[@EthanChlebowski]

Glad to hear it!

[@ChrisKChandler]

I wondered what that emulsion was all about! I've seen brine poured into the dimples (like in a Ligurian style) and just olive oil on top, but never a mix with plain water. Will try! 👍

[@nehaljoshy7540]

I made these and they came out PERFECT!!!!!!! My entire family is OBSESSED with this recipe. Thank you so much❤️

[@Lola-cy4xq]

I have been making this for the last two weeks. Super easy and delicious. My kids use it as sandwhich bread for school. They are normally pretty picky. Thank you

[@sukritinigam]

I've made it twice already with different toppings. Thanks for this recipe!

[@Grayald]

This is easy and comes out great every time. You can make it even better if you do a long, cold rise. I use a little extra yeast, and stick the dough bucket in the refrigerator. I give it a fold once per day. Today's was half pepperoni pizza and half Mediterranean focaccia. Got rave reviews.

[@ChiddoLuna]

Thanks Ethan, this was a hit with the family! Turned out great! I did have to adjust cook time +5 min and 1/8 cup flour (~15.5g) for altitude (4750ft)

[@guycampbell733]

hey thanks for this! Greetings from 5358ft

[@Delightfulll]

The production quality is amazing. How does this not have more views lol

[@curiositygarden]

Just tried this recipe today and it made the house smell sooo good, and turned out great! Opted for some fresh garden herbs, thin sliced tomatoes patted dry, and parmesan cheese 😋

[@matchamochisashimi]

first time making focaccia and used this recipe as it didn't require an overnight rise. so easy and turned out great!!! light crisp crust, soft airy insides. thank you

[@EthanChlebowski]

Glad to hear it turned out well for you! Thanks for making it.

[@shelleyneu374]

Tried it tonight. It was crispy on the outside. Soft and chewy on the inside. I made club sandwiches for a quick family meal.

[@EthanChlebowski]

Great to hear! Perfect for club sandwiches

[@jeromedelossantos3762]

insane how easy this was to make & how perfect it comes out !! every bite i was shocked i made it. 😂

[@frankjr1284]

I did it the way as described in the video as well as one where I just threw it in the fridge overnight, pulled it out for a couple hours and skipped the stretch and folds, and both came out just perfect. A single packet of yeast will do, don't need to open up another to get the extra 2g.

[@gunveenkaur453]

Watched this recipe, tried focaccia, and it wasn't focaccia.. it was heaven😍😍😍😍😍😍 thank you so much... love from indiw

[@cbgbstew4072]

I made this with white whole wheat flour, so of course the flavor and texture are different than white flour, and it turned out pretty good! I thought I had drenched the bottom of my pans in olive oil, but apparently not as it was cemented to the bottom. If you think you’ve used enough oil in the pan, add more!

[@suelester4950]

Just made the best focaccia I have ever made using your recipe-- much better than some of the better viewed, more complicated overnight recipes. Thanks so much for this video-- hope you do more.

[@JohnNathanShopper]

Made this bread today. Came together so easily and baked perfectly in cast iron.

[@teresashek234]

Ohh! That sounds amazing

[@shellymansker7057]

OMG... I made this tonight for turkey sandwiches, it was soooo good. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

[@greenricee]

Made it with kalamata, tomatoes, and thyme and broiled it for the last minute. Came out good. Thanks bro

[@inkspiller366]

I'm crap at baking but man this recipe is royal, comes out perfect every time cheers

[@susanjaku5883]

This is delicious! Even though, I didn’t have a scale (being a novice baker), and my dough was over 75% hydration: I thought I’d screwed it up, but it’s tasty-adding fresh tomato 🍅 slices to absorb the olive oil and salty top-yum! 🙏

[@bewater6684]

Doesnt the tomato make the bread soggy?

[@barthadaniel8316]

5:42 lool he dropped the bread btw its amazing and you are the best

[@TheDarrenH30]

I never really bake anything because it’s just too exacting but this looks so good I had to try it. I bought a kitchen scale for this project and WOW! This was amazing! Great job Ethan. This is going to be a staple in our house. Thank you.

[@qosmioamit]

I made several no-knead focaccias before I stumbled across this video and made this one. Wow! Thanks so much for the research and tests. This is an incredibly crispy but rich recipe! I topped mine with cherry tomatoes, chilli flakes, and sliced olives.

[@rolandvolmer]

GREAT RECIPE!!! Love it!!! I made it and the first time the result was outstanding!!!

[@manalinh0x0]

I tried many different recipes for focaccia and this one is my favorite so far. Super easy and the bread is crispy on the outside but soft and fluffy on the inside.

[@benrobinson77]

THANK YOU for showing how to do it by hand. Not everyone can buy a stand mixer with a dough hook, they're so bulky and expensive. And I'm a firm believer in doing anything by hand whenever possible.

[@Chrisieh0]

I just tried your recipe and it turned out damn delicious. Thanks!

[@EthanChlebowski]

Glad to hear it!

[@JanetCaterina]

Most simple recipe and method I have seen, thank you

[@jayasomayaji6085]

Man are you underrated! I’m surprised you don’t have more subs. This looks like a great recipe and it won’t take me 48 hours!

[@didanz100]

I have been using the no need cold ferment for up to 48 hours. Also freezes which I have found that this improves the dough even further.

[@jeffmanni1355]

Made this 3 times now, always came out fantastic, thanks

[@jordaningram2293]

Ethan, I just made focaccia for the first time and it turned out insanely well. Thank you for sharing this!! Will be enjoyed with a salad of mixed greens, strawberries, and toasted pecans, and pasta with a white wine lemon and garlic sauce.

[@annewatson4786]

I’m making this recipe for the 2nd time-absolutely delicious-my whole family loves this-the 1st time I made this we made sandwiches with the bread-this time I’m making a pasta dish and using the bread to sop up the broth-thx so much for sharing!!!

[@lilydar3076]

Thank you. I made it last night. It came out as beautiful as yours with great taste. Very accurate amount of ingredients. Deeply appreciate it. 🌹

[@IAmPattycakes]

I had a bit of an issue with this my first try, because the foaming from the yeast I saw was just stirring bubbles from the yeast/flour/water mixture. But putting half a cup (couldn't bother with a scale, it worked out in the end) of water, little bit of sugar, and another pack of yeast in, then adding another cup of flour to the pre-made dough and just doing the whole process over again without wasting the ingredients made a still phenomenal loaf. I also added a ton of chopped rosemary into the dough, then rosemary and oregano to the top. Absolutely delicious imo, will definitely make this again, hopefully a little smarter this time lol.

[@mariaortiz-bc4uw]

Oh my goodness! I made this bread today and it came out delicious! I can’t get over how good it turned out. Thank you for such a good recipe.

[@SonofPlonky]

Omg thank you, I had made your recipe before but got my memories crossed and ended up with a very bad recipe and started over with this excellent recipe. Thanks again!

[@nitaf71]

This looks so yummy and not too complicated

Very informative about the yeast and the dough, I enjoyed this video I'm excited to try this recipe

Hey Ethan. I made the Focaccia. It was super easy and fun. Thanks again for another great recipe. I put lots of Parmesan cheese on top along with the salt and rosemary. My family ate it in one day!

[@GrandpaCanCook]

Thanks Ethan. It was everything you said it was going to be. The crust was, like you said, thin but crunchy. It will be one of our regular breads.

Hi Ethan, Thanks for the awesome videos! I want to recommend you specify Fahrenheit when measuring temperature, so people using Celcius who are completely new to breadmaking don't accidently kill their yeast.
