Sourdough Ciabatta image

Ciabatta is a soft Italian bread, often used to make paninis. We base our version on a traditional sourdough starter, giving the Ciabatta a tangy flavor.

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 cups ripe sourdough starter
1 3/4 cups lukewarm water
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 Tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Add all ingredients to stand mixer bowl and mix on lowest power until well combined. Increase speed to medium-high and knead dough for about 15 minutes.
  • You may have to stop the mixer a couple of times to scrape down the dough hook and the sides of the bowl. The dough should be very stretchy, but add more flour if the dough is unmanageable.
  • Transfer the dough to a greased bowl, cover and let rise for 3-4 hours.
  • Cover a baking sheet liberally with flour and turn the dough onto the sheet. As the photo above shows it looks like a blob (although yours will not look quite like this - see my What I Did Wrong below).
  • Divide into two loaves. Stretch one piece and place on parchment paper. Repeat with the other half. Sprinkle with flour, cover and let rise about 40 minutes.
  • Place a baking stone on the middle rack in the oven and preheat to 475 degrees.
  • Uncover the loaves, dimple dough with your fingertips, and slide onto the stone. Bake until the loaves are browned and internal temperature reaches 205 degrees, about 30 minutes.

I had some trouble getting the dough to rise, but I eventually got it to work.

I was really excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed with the results. The bread was dense and gummy, and it didn't have much flavor.

I've been making sourdough bread for years, and this is one of the best ciabatta recipes I've tried. The bread was so delicious that I couldn't stop eating it!

This sourdough ciabatta recipe is a keeper! The bread turned out light and airy, with a crispy crust and a slightly tangy flavor. I followed the instructions carefully and had no problems at all.
