                      @endo We started messing around with focaccia last Fall. We just used this recipe:

                      https://www.emmafontanella.com/no-knead-focaccia

                      Done it twice, and it's turned out great both times...the only real tweaks we made was cooking it a little less than recommended...we like a a nice doughy soft bite. Unfortunately I don't have any money shots of the loaf cut open though.

                      Pretty easy recipe, takes a bit of time...but most of it is non-active, and just letting it rise and rest.

                          OK. Now need to work on my Focaccia game.....

                          There are many Forkish recipes that can be easily transformed into Focaccia, Poolish, Biga... (and some good olive oil). The recipes are always for two bread and I quite often make one bread and a Focaccia from the same dough...

                                          Was going to ask a similar question but seriously; do you know what gluten percent classifies as strong flour for Japan?
