chelster The phrase ciabatta bread, broadcast ad nauseam thanks to a nauseating Jack-in-the-Box commercial, is laughably redundant. Ciabatta is bread. Mar 24, 2011
srkrause a bread that CAN be made with about half whole wheat and also sourdough starter rather that instant yeast and all white flour. It gets big air holes in it because it is a very wet dough and is handled very delicately to not degas while fermenting AND proofing.
