The Ultimate No Knead Garlic Focaccia

Before you start to make this fluffy focaccia recipe, measure and prepare your ingredients so the cooking process will go smoothly and easily.

Yeast- we used instant yeast for this recipe. make sure that your yeast isn’t expired. Instant yeast doesn't require the activation step, you can mix it into the dough right away.

That's why we love using instant yeast. If you don't have instant yeast, simply replace it with the yeast that you do have and activate it if needed.

Granulated sugar– we like to use granulated sugar, also the most common sugar used in baking. Caster sugar will work great as well.

Salt– We used kosher salt for this recipe. we love using kosher salt in baking because it's super easy to measure, and we like that the grains of the salt are small in size.

Toppings- we like to change up the topping according to our moods. on today's focaccia, we topped it with olive oil, sesame seed, zaatar, and fresh sliced garlic.

Step 2: Add the flour and salt to the water mixture and mix with a spoon until a sticky dough forms. Make sure that you measure your ingredients correctly.

Step 3: Oil a big bowl with a few tablespoon of olive oil. Transfer the dough to the oiled bowl and cover the dough ball with more olive oil. (the olive oil will soak into the dough) Cover with a towel or plastic wrap and place the bowl in the fridge for at least 18 hours.

Step 4: Take the dough out of the fridge, and prepare a 9x13 inch nonstick baking pan with a generous drizzle of olive oil.

Step 6: The dough should look very puffy and jiggly. uncover the baking pan and drizzle olive oil for the last time in this process on the dough, oil your hands.

Step 7: Now for the fun part: dimple the dough with your 10 fingers. and make sure that your hands are oiled with olive oil so they won’t stick to the sticky dough.

Yes. we recommend adding up to 50% of whole wheat flour to the mixture and adding a bit more water because whole wheat flour soaks more water than all-purpose flour.

After letting the focaccia cool to room temperature, place it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. I like to reheat it in a 180c (350f) preheated oven for 5-8 minutes.

Use room temperature ingredients. It is important that you use room-temperature ingredients like water. This step ensures that your dough mixes into a homogenous mixture and bakes perfectly.

Make sure that you are using a non-stick baking pan to bake the focaccia in. If you will use a pan that food sticks to it, it will be very hard to release the focaccia from the pan. We recommend this 9x13 baking pan.

Make sure that your ingredients are fresh! Make sure that your flour and yeast are fresh and not expired. This step ensures that you will have a great dough to work with.

The

Oil your hands before you dimple the focaccia with your fingers, the focaccia dough is super sticky and if you don't oil your hands, you will find yourself in a sticky mess. (been there done that lol)

Make sure that your yeast isn’t expired. You can check if your yeast is expired by mixing a teaspoon of dry yeast with ¼ cup of room temperature water, wait 10 minutes, and if the yeast has bubbles in it and it puffed a bit, your yeast is alive and good, if there are no bubbles in your yeast mixture, your yeast is probably expired.

It also makes a fantastic gift to give to friends, neighbors, and relatives. I may be mistaken, but I think people like this focaccia even more than my famous and highly popular French baguettes.

I don't know if this can be called a secret, but the trick is... well, there are several tricks at play here. Not even tricks, more like tips. Nuances. Hit them all, thats' the trick, and you will have outstanding focaccia. I learned some of these nuances while working at a small Italian restaurant long ago. Shortly after I started the job, my boss, an eccentric and talented chef from Italy, taught me how to make focaccia. It was an eye-opener. I had never tasted anything like it before. The rest came from experimenting and baking other things.

To make a long story short, what I think is critical for making a really good focaccia is high hydration dough, overnight cold retarding, long proofing, high heat baking with convection, and ... butter.

When I say high hydration, I don't mean the dough becomes almost liquid. I've seen some recipes like that. No, the dough doesn't need to be hydrated to that extent, and there is little benefit to
