If you want to learn how to bake this 100% hydration fkaa and something else stay watching this video glut Morgan everyone today we’ll be baking fuka yes I know that in my channel I have many other recipes of fuka but not this one this one is going to have 100% hydration
And what that does mean that means that in 1 kilo flour we have 1 kilo water so it’s going to be an almost impossible mission the whole idea of this Quest is to get a fuka very very light super Airy open cramp and if you stay till the end
Of the video there’s going to be an incredible surprise so let’s get started but before we start with the recipe we need to do something since this is a very hydrated dough we need to check what flour are we going to use so I am going to check three different flowers
And see which one is the perfect for this fuka the first flower for this test is going to be the allpurpose flour 100 G flow and 100 G water we are not knitting just mixing till the flour gets all hydrated now I cover it with a lid
And let it rest for 1 hour the next one is bread flour we’re going to use equal parts of flour and water again put the lid on and done time to rest for 1 hour this flour should be the one for this kind of aacha so we have 100 G of flour
And we add 100 G of water mixing and done recover it and let it rest for 1 hour good it’s been an hour so it’s time to check the flowers how did they respond to the aliz okay let’s go first with the allpurpose flower I wet my hand
And now I pick it up and I try to stretch M no no there is no gluten development at all it was too much water for this flour let’s move on to the next one now time for the bread flour okay I wet my hands again and remove it from
The bottom was look I thought it was looking a little bit better but not that better 100% hydration is too much for this flower maybe around 70 80 could be okay now to move to the last one now we’re going to check the membrane of the
High gluten flour and I pick it up ah looking good H here we have some gluten def check my fingers it’s so translucent and yes I like this flower so we are ready to start with the fuka and now that we have the flower let’s check the
Formula here it is remember that you can add it into my app gluten Morgan Bakers percentage it’s totally free for Android or iPhone have you seen the formula this fuka is made with Biga but interesting thing about this recipe is that the 100% of the flour goes into the biger yes
We’re going to preferment the whole flour one day before that’s going to make it super tasty super light and super Airy and the other thing is that we’re using 100% water this is an extreme recipe so let’s start with the Biga for the Biga we need the flour that
We already know which is some water yeast and a container so we put in the container all the flour we add the yeast and now we add the water remember that in the Biga we use one pot of flour and then half pot of water the rest of the water is
Going to be incorporated in the final recipe so at the beginning this is going to be a very dry dough we shake it a little bit or we can use a spoon we are not knitting at all there’s no gluten development we’re going to get all these
Chunks of flour it’s perfect as soon as all the water is incorporated that’s all so that is the texture that we’re looking for now we cover it and we leave it there on the counter until tomorrow and here we have the full fermented bigger as you can see it hasn’t grown
That much but it is all full of bubbles so now we are ready to continue with the recipe so now it’s time to start with the final dough as we’re working with a Biga I recommend you to use a stand mixer if you have of course you can do
It by hand because sometimes you get these little chunks of flour or Biga that keeps in the dough for longer time that’s why I recommend if you have a mixer use it okay let’s start and the ingredients for the final dough are are of course the Biga so we need the rest
Of the water some salt and a good olive [Applause] oil I feel like an Italian [Applause] makingi As usual I am going to use the baddle instead of the hook because we’re working with high hydration dose and this is much more efficient so now I’m going to add the water little by little that’s called basinas in French it’s going to be hard
And almost at the end I’m going to add the salt and finally the olive oil so let’s start at M gluten be with us I still have all this water left but now I move to spit number two oh we’re going good we still have all this mdle water to reach the 100%
Hydration so the key is always to keep the dough hooked to the padle and we still have this little last amount of water to go in and here I have the last drops of water for 100% hydration and now that the gluten network is almost developed time to add the
Salt and last but not least the olive oil we’ve got it wow and now that it’s on the counter a few stretching and foldings kind of bur inet Style and now that the dough is in the bowl I’ll cover it and take it to the fridge for cold fermentation until tomorrow see
You good morgan everyone and here I am again 24 hours later with the dough already proved let’s take a look it’s a little bit scary but let’s go on an oven tray we pour some olive oil but some not a lot of olive oil yes believe in me because it’s really
Important and wow this dough is so sticky so we stretch it a little bit with our fingers and let it there okay now that the dough is UN molded I have to stretch it very very little the thing is to wait till the gluten Network relaxes a little bit otherwise I’m going
To break it now another drizzle of olive oil and we do the final adjustments always doing it very carefully now that the dough is already stretched it’s time to bake it I have my oven appreciate it at 480° F and it’s going to be there for around 50 minutes let’s

What are the protein percentages of the AP, Bread, and Strong Flours you are using?
Mamma miaaaaaa!!!! Buon appetito! Buon Anno 2024! Forza Argentina!
Looks amazing!❤
I'm taking a break from bread making to focus on weight loss, but I am not done with bread by a long shot and I might try something like this at some point
Man that looks great
Do you have a sourdough version????
Stupid question:
Why should we go with 100% hydration to begin with?
Fantastic focaccia
Amazing 🎉🎉
Boy oh boy! I thoroughly enjoyed this video.
I'm mad about focaccia and make it often – but this recipe is intimidating🙈
However, this result of a crispy shell, soft, light and airy focaccia is tempting me to try.
Thank you from South Africa❤🇿🇦
Great!!! I hope I was in Argentina to taste all that goodiness with your focaccia. Sending love from Puerto Rico!❤
For the high protein flour, what % protein is it?
Man, as a Spanish speaking Latino, I had a hard time following the gentleman at the deli. My Spanish game is weaker than I thought.
What size is the pan?
Loved the video! What percentage protein is the flour you are using? Thanks
My biga had clumps that didn’t dissolve when I had it in the mixer.
You are good looking 🤤🤤
Oven temp and bake time?
100’s of years nobody worried about hydration, gluten content, blah blah blah. Stop with this stupid bullshit already. It’s fucking dough
Que c'est dommage que ce ne soit qu'en anglais
I make that kind of focaccia all the time, but oh man, those sandwiches!!!!! I'm drooling and I don't even eat meat. Now looking for a recipe for garlic and coffee butter!!!! Great vid, inspiring. thanks!
Hi – in the recipe you’re specifying fresh yeast but in the video it looks like you’re using dried yeast?
Tried this. My dough had a lot of small clumps in and it just balled around the mixer tool. (Same KA tool as vid). I changed to the dough hook.
I let the dough rest for a while in the hope the clumps absorb moisture and dissipate with another 5 mins mixing.
It’s a patience game!
Capo, muchisimo mejor que cafiero
Being a retired engineer, I was very accurate. My firsts problem was what to use for yeast? It says fresh but looks like dry instant? My flour was 14% because that was all I could find higher than bread (12.7%). So I added 5grs of instant yeast and 485grs flour plus 242 grs water. It looked just like your biga! After covering the biga and leaving it 24 hrs in my kitchen 73* F with 65% humidity. The next morning my biga did not look like yours! Some of the biga was dry like yours and half was very wet and bubbly. So I did my best to cut up and add to the mixer. I started adding water a little at a time and it was very sloppy soup then started adding flour and water. Put it in the fridge (37*) probably too cold because it didn't rise. So the next morning I took it out of the fridge and left on the counter for a few hours until it doubled in size. Poured into a black pan (12" x 17") let it rest and then put in my electric oven on the middle rack for 15 minutes…it wasnt done …took about 25 minutes and it did not rise uniformly. …So my question is (my yeast was new) what when wrong? Yes there was small little pieces of flour in the dough…yes the dough climbed the paddle all the way to the machine, I kept scraping the paddle. I am at sea level. In a home oven what shelf? What yeast? Should I mix the flour with some bread flour 50-50 to make it less hard?
The point of using ratios is to keep it referenced to 1. So this would be 1 part water 2 part flour, not 1 part flour half part water.
Using '100% water' is not equal to saying 100% hydration.
You helped me improve, I am merely attempting to reciprocate. I apologize if it is conveyed horribly 🫣
I take sandwich no 2 please. Love sundried tomatos.
this is amazing! how much dry yeast are you using 5gr or 2?
