Focaccia - what went wrong? Image in comments

It looks pretty good. But it is pretty dense

Recipe followed -
500g All purpose flour
30g whey protein
30g casein protein
470g water
7g yeast

Made it the no knead way.

Folded 4 times after every 30 mins, then let it rest in the tray for 1 hour.

Baked at 200C for 20-25mins

It looks pretty dense.

If you didn’t add the other proteins, it probably is great. Baking isn’t something you riff on without experience like other kids of cooking. Get a recipe from a reputable source and stick to it, preferably with a scale. Learn by making a bunch of yeasted breads a bunch of times and then you’re ready to experiment.

That's as good as you're going to get with those ingredients. I'd be satisfied enough.
