Oh Focaccia again

Focaccia dough, bubbly, ready for dimpling and baking

Well risen, golden focaccia

Oh Focaccia

Slightly dark focaccia, dimpled, with flaky salt sitting on a cooling rack

Oh, the shame

The rise is fairly /unspectacular/.

What did I do differently:

  • took the starter (old dough) out of the fridge a day early
  • pre-heated the oven and hour longer

Mhm.

6 bread rolls, relatively smooth on top as the rise was not pronounced, otherwise ok

Back to basics

6 crusty bread rolls with „erupted“ tops, dusted with flour on top, a dark reddish brown towards the bottom, cooling on the rack.

Went back to my basic recipe. Still got it ;-)

Larger rolls, softer crumb

I added olive oil to my dough to get a softer crumb. Also I tried to go for longer rolls (normal in .de) but did not give the rolls enough support while proofing.

I should have cut them, they did not rip open as my normal rolls.

formed dough on the baker’s linen, forgot to give them support with folds

4 rolls in the oven, more a panini form, less bread roll

4 rolls on the cooling rack. Intentionally less browning, more panini then roll

Taste and texture are good though. Not what I wanted, but tasty.

Rolls again, doesn’t it get boring?

In a word, no. The pictures show more consistency than is really there.

Back to cold fermenting, otherwise recipe unchanged, 4 instead of 6 rolls.

A little dark maybe.
