So last post I talked a little about brioche, tonight I want to talk about ciabatta; and I promise the next post will be me baking the bread rather than talking about it.
Ciabatta literally means "slipper" bread. It is an italian white bread that is broad and flat. The meaning of the slipper is a reference to its shape which resembles a slipper. There are many different types of ciabatta in different regions of Italy but it is said that it was first produced in Liguria in 1982 and was introduced to the UK in 1985.
This bread is usually used for sandwiches such as delicious paninis and antipasto which are small appetizers. In Italy it is also widely used to make croutons and bread pudding.

P.S., ciabatta is a pain in the ass to google.
Now, Caitlin is going to show us how she makes her ciabatta bread. Lets take a look.

I would also like to take a moment to remember all the lives that were taken on Friday morning. May they rest peacefully.
Happy baking
