      ​@@vincenzosplate, please make a correct, there is a mistake in the main text, in description of the video - you have now 50 g of salt, people said in comments that should be 15 g. I have dough in my refrigirator with 50g of salt, so probably I will throw it away. 😢😢😢

    Not only the salt is 15g (not 50g), the baking tray is 30x40 cm (not 30x40 inches, it's 12 x 16 inches). As he says, it's 1 g dough per square cm which is 0.23 oz per square inch.

  • @ElCamelloLocoO
    @ElCamelloLocoO Рік тому +19

    The dimensions of the tray for this recipe mentioned by Lucio are in centimeters not inches, 30 cm x 40 cm, so it's about 1 gram of dough per centimeter square as explained at the end of the video (total of 1.2 Kg). Thank you for the video, I will try this recipe tomorrow 🌻

    Focaccia is such a versatile bread. I seen focaccia used like a canvas to make pictures using herbs and vegetables. But you can enjoy it plain with olive oil and a few herbs dipping the bread into the oil mixture. Or make it like a wonder pizza dough substitute a little tomato or white sauce and cheese with basil and oregano. I like also to slice a plain focaccia through the middle and make sandwiches with it. It has to be the most versatile bread you can make for so many make ways the mind only has to imagen. Thank you Vincenzo’s and Lucio for this beautiful focaccia recipe. Always a pleasure to watch a professional like Lucio and yourself make beautiful tasty Italian food, you make it look so easy. Thank you again.

    • @rickbooher8224
      @rickbooher8224 10 місяців тому +1

      @@mcrowson5276 it what ever size you choose from a full sheet pan which are use In big ovens to a half that fits the oven in your stove to a quarter size, you just have to adjust the size of you composition. But to answer you question I would say it is a half sheet one the can easily go in your standard home oven. I have cook the in a 13x9 casserole pan and in cast iron both has produce great results as well. But I would spread much oil on it to keep the focaccia from sticking. I did one once that I forgot the dough of focaccia would soak up some and didn't put enough oil on the sheet pan and it stuck to the pan, with much effort we got the focaccia to release from the pan but there were some pieces left on it, which I had to soak the pan and scrub it to remove and clean the pan. However the focaccia was still tasty and soft in the middle, just missing a few pieces off the bottom.
      I would highly recommend making a few focaccias so you can accomplish the skill to make a focaccia, then begin to create works of art. By practicing and adding toppings you may use you will understand how the cook them so they don't burn but yet cook them through, they knowing how to cook them proceeded to the decorating them as works of art. A focaccia is still with basic topping of coarse salt, olive oil, rosemary, and olives and makes a great presentation. But a plain focaccia make with olive oil and coarse salt sprinkle over the top makes a great focaccia for sandwiches. I have done it also with everything bagel seasoning and olive oil that was fantastic. Much like the pizza the focaccia is a canvas that one can create his own work of art through the seasoning or as these works of art in representation of nature. Good baking and I hope you can accomplish making you favorite focaccia to share with others.

      @@vincenzosplate I really regret waiting so long to try my first focaccia. I've been baking sourdough bread for a few years, but I was hesitant to make focaccia because it seemed a bit complicated. After trying it for the first time, I fell in love with its taste, and now I'm eager to try other toppings. I don't know what the one with yeast tastes like, but this sourdough version with almost 24 hours of fermentation is amazing. I want to thank you for your recipes in general; it's clear that you make them with love and care for each ingredient. That's how I am too-I treat food like someone dear to me.

    Is the salt measurement correct? Isn't 50grams of salt too much for 1.2 kg of dough? I am asking because if it was for pizza we would put around 20 grams. Also the pan's dimensions mentioned probably are 30x40 in centimeters. Other than that, thank you for the wonderful recipe!

    • @frmov9237
      @frmov9237 Рік тому +1

      It must be 15 grams. I guess it was a mispronunciation by the chef. I tried with 50 even thinking that it didn't seem like ok and the resulting dough was inedible.

    Pity I can’t attach foto of it. It’s great. I made no topping, just oil and salt that we can use it for sandwiches too.
    I just used much less salt, 25 grams as I consider 50 grams way too much for that amount of the dough.
    However, next time less. Still salty.
    Thanks!

    I absolutely love Focaccia but I never made it before myself. I think the flour mixture is very important. I really want to try to make this. I once made Detroit Pizza at home which is not exactly Focaccia but the dough is inspired by Focaccia. If you never tried original Detroit Pizza its a treat.

      Focaccia is a delightful bread, and making it at home can be a rewarding experience. You're right; the flour mixture and dough preparation are crucial. It's great that you've explored making other types of pizza like Detroit Pizza; variety in the kitchen is wonderful! If you decide to make Focaccia, I'm sure it will turn out fantastic. And thanks for the tip about Detroit Pizza; it's always fun to try new recipes! 🍕🇮🇹😊

    Correction and clarifications :
    15 grams to 20 grams of salt - 50 grams is way too much.
    It's a 30cm x 40cm tray.
    Most importantly you need around 2 grams to 3 grams of *DRY* yeast. Not sure how they got that to rise with 2 grams of fresh yeast even after 24 hours.
    Everything else is great including the method to no neat it and length of proofing and refigeration. Made a perfect light and fluffy in the middle crunchy faccacia !!!

      Yes, stupidly I added the 50g, I started mixing and realized that 50g was not possible... Too late... Yep, 15 are enough.

    Hi Vincenzo. You should make a video how to make "lo sfincione (spinciuni)". It's quite similar to the focaccia. It's the Sicilian version and has a chopped tomatoe topping, with anchovies, capers, onions, a good Type of Sicilian cheese. That would be awesome.

    Hello Vincenzo Sir, had a beautiful & enlightening video, as usual❤.
    If we were to try this focaccia bread or perhaps a different pizza dough with sourdough instead of instant yeast, like they traditionally did in mediaeval times before the advent of commercial yeast, then what should be the proportion of sourdough in the dough?

  • @dflosounds
    @dflosounds 3 місяці тому

    I'm a little confused about the flours. In the beginning it's stated that he's using 550g of the blue flour, and 150g of the red flour. That's also what the written recipe says. From what I can find online, the blue is the one with the higher protein content. However, around 3:45, when he adds the 150g of flour, he says it's the blue one "with the high protein content." So does that mean he's actually using 550g of the RED, and 150g of the blue? And for those of us without access to these flours, would that basically mean 550g of all-purpose flour, and 150g of bread flour (or any flour with a higher protein content)?
