Ciabatta Recipe FAQs

What is ciabatta?

Ciabatta is an Italian bread made from simple baking ingredients. The rustic bread is broad, flat-shaped and elongated with an airy interior with holes. Its exterior is crisp and crusty, perfect for soups.

How do you make ciabatta?

Prepare the starter with yeast, flour and water, and set it aside overnight. Mix the starter with flour, yeast and salt to make the dough, and let it rest before you divide it. Bake the dough while steaming it until it is golden brown.

What makes ciabatta bread different?

Ciabatta bread is different due to the airy, hole-filled interior and its soft, chewy texture. The hole-filled interior makes it ideal for swiping up sauce or dunking into soups or stews. Since it doesn’t fall apart easily, it makes delicious sandwiches.

What is the best way to eat ciabatta bread?

You can enjoy ciabatta bread warm with spreads like butter or extra-virgin olive oil. Make an Italian sandwich using the ciabatta slices with a combination of turkey, ham, salami or pesto.
