Ciabatta save this recipe! 📩A true, authentic ciabatta with a beautiful, airy crumb and immaculate flavor. The day before baking, you start with a preferment (biga) and let it proof for 12-24 hours. ⏰On baking day, combine the remaining ingredients of the dough and it`s time to stretch (and fold). 💪Then we shape, and finally we bake. 🙌Pro Tip: Allow the ciabatta to cool on a wire rack after taking it out of the oven, this helps to fully develop the flavor. Ciabatta is best eaten the same day, but you can store it for up to two days after it`s made. Created by @bakerbettie
