Classic Homemade Ciabatta Bread Recipe. Ingredients: 500g bread flour, 400g warm water, 10g sea salt, 7g instant yeast, 20g olive oil, 1 teaspoon honey, extra flour for dusting, fresh rosemary or herbs for decoration. Instructions: Mix bread flour, warm water, yeast, honey and olive oil in a large bowl until a sticky dough forms. Add sea salt and continue mixing until everything is well combined. Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place until it becomes airy and doubled in size. Gently fold the dough several times to create the classic open ciabatta texture with large air pockets. Place the dough on a floured surface, shape it into rustic rectangular loaves, and sprinkle the top with extra flour. Bake the ciabatta in a preheated oven at 220°C (430°F) for about 25–30 minutes until the crust becomes golden brown and crispy. Let the bread cool slightly before slicing. Serve the fresh ciabatta with olive oil, butter, cheese, vegetables, or homemade sauces. The final bread should have a crunchy golden crust, soft airy interior, and a rich handmade bakery aroma. - @junieayers5
