Ingredients

For 4 servings
  • 325 ml lukewarm water
  • 3 g dried yeast
  • 50 ml olive oil
  • 425 g strong bread flour
  • 10 g salt

Makes 4 ciabattas; one serving is one ciabatta.

Step by step

  1. Mix the dough in a container with a lid: it ferments better that way.
  2. Use warm water. Once you've added all the ingredients, bring them together with a spatula: the dough will be quite sticky.
  3. Cover and leave the dough to rest in the fridge overnight.
  4. Flour the worktop well and cut the dough into rough rectangles with a dough scraper or a floured knife.
  5. Move them to a baking tray and leave them to rest for 15 minutes.
  6. Bake at 200 °C fan until golden and crusty, about 20–25 minutes.
