Homemade Ciabatta
Ingredients
- Wheat Flour 20 oz
- Water 10 fl oz
- Ocean salt 1 teaspoon
- Dry yeast ½ teaspoon
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Add salt and yeast to warm water, stir everything, and let it sit for 10 minutes.
Step 2
Sift the flour, pour the prepared liquid into it, and mix everything. The mixture will be sticky; you can mix it as you prefer—by hand or with a wooden spatula. There is no need to knead the dough, just mix until homogeneous.
Step 3
Then place it in a tall container, preferably a glass bowl, cover with a towel, and leave in a warm place for 12 hours. It's best to leave it overnight.
Step 4
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and generously sprinkle it with flour.
Step 5
Pour the mixture onto the parchment, shape it into a square, and fold the edges inward, first the top and bottom edges, then the sides. Turn the dough seam side down. Cover it with a towel and let it rest for 1 to 1.5 hours.
Step 6
After that, place it in the oven, having previously put a container with boiling water at the bottom. Bake at 480°F for 15 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 430°F and bake for another 15 minutes.
Step 7
Once baked, place the bread on a rack and cover it with a towel. Let it cool for at least 30 minutes.
Step 8
The ciabatta turns out very tasty with a crispy crust!
