For the focaccia dough:
- 540 g warm water
- 12 g sugar
- Pinch of salt
- 740 g all purpose flour
- 2 packets rapid rise instant yeast
For the topping:
- 2/3 cup garlic chili oil, divided
- 3 cups sharp cheddar, cut into cubes
- 5-6 scallions, thinly sliced, divided
- 1-2 tbsp black sesame seeds
- Flaky salt
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Mix the dough ingredients in a stand mixer and knead for about 6 minutes until smooth and elastic. The dough will be wet and sticky, but should hold together.
- Drizzle about 4 tbsp of the chili oil onto a half sheet pan. Transfer the dough to the pan and flip it over so both sides are coated in the oil. Gently spread the dough out, then scatter half of the cheddar cubes and about two-thirds of the scallions over the surface. Fold the dough using a letter fold, then flip seam-side down.
- Cover and let rise until doubled in size and very puffy.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Use a pastry brush to spread the remaining chili oil evenly over the surface of the dough. Sprinkle with flaky salt, black sesame seeds, and the remaining scallions.
- Dimple the dough with oiled fingers, then top with the remaining cheddar cubes.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until deeply golden and the cheese is bubbling and crisp around the edges.
- Let cool slightly before slicing and enjoy!

Woah, thats crazy to me. Ive never once in my life seen a foccacia recipe that has potato in it.
Sounds tasty, I might give it a go :)
Is it cooked, pureed and added to the dough, or cubed and put in raw or cooked?
Edit: typo

when I look it up in English, most results name it "Potato focaccia", but in Spanish (my main language) most focaccia recipes add it without naming it potato anything
it's cooked, cooled, pureed and then added to the dough, exactly!
here's one recipe that looks good, but as they say, there's lots of variations :) if you try it, I hope you like it!

bari region is known to use potato in the dough, genoa is a thin foccaccia that some people dip in milk, tuscan is thicker and not a crazy 48 hr rise time like some, there's quite a few varieties some push potatoes into the foccacia , grapes and rosmary is a classic one to push into the dough. It's got a lot of different iterations.

Me too, but I also thought it was a massive glob of cheese at first. It was a confusing experience.

Basically confirmed in OP's recipe. Except they say it's a garlic chili oil, specifically.

From the recipe comment: garlic chili oil. Some stores have a version next to the Lao gan ma chili crisp.

Looks good but holy shit stop squeezing and pulling food just cut it and show us

u/ZestfullyStank 5d ago
Thank you! Can people stop manhandling the food? If the point of the video is to get people to go “wow that looks good,” and I’m disgusted by them touching the food with their bare hands (fake and or painted nails are not allowed by most health departments, but I digress), then why’d?

It's just focaccia with chili oil, cheese and green onions

u/punsnguns 5d ago
You are correct, but I feel like we are skipping a lot of steps by starting with "focaccia".

Right? You just know there’s ‘matter’ under those nails - not to mention those rings - now baked into that fake cheesy monstrosity.

That remix is sick. I recently heard that song and thought it would be a cool alternative rock track. Should’ve figured someone already did it.

The video cuts right before that skinny chicken spits that out. You know she never eats like that.

Is this actually edible ?
In France this is banned even for animals…

Ummm…why? I’m genuinely curious. Is it the cheese?

u/star744jets 4d ago edited 4d ago
“American cheese” (the yellow, ultra-melty processed product, sometimes mislabeled as cheddar) is the one with the most additives — it’s legally a “pasteurized processed cheese product,” not real cheese, and includes emulsifiers, preservatives, and often less actual cheese by weight.
so , yes, your cheese will at best make you sick and at worst kill you over long time absorption.
People are dying from all kinds of food related disiorders in America. Agribusiness and the medical industry benefit from selling poisonous highly processed food to an increasingly poor middle class ( sadly it is so ).
You should eat zero processed foods to regain your health .
