This is a delicious and simple ciabatta recipe. I have tried another recipe before, and it took the entire day to make 2 loaves of ciabatta. I could not believe how easy and good this recipe was. I followed the recipe entirely and I was very happy with the result. As one reviewer said, I sprayed the bread with water a few times while in oven for a crispier crust. Will make it again soon!

Yum! I admit, I feared it was too flat/runny but it cooked up just like a beautiful store bought ciabatta. Prepare yourselves for STICKY dough--handle minimally, and make sure everything is floured nicely.

We love this bread, its become a real treat in our house! The last time I made it, I roasted a head of garlic and made a paste from it with a little sea salt and rosemary. I added it to the bread machine and let it knead for a few minutes before taking the loaf out to rest. The final product came out beautifully! The recipe is lovely on its own, but the garlic was a nice addition.

Another great bread recipe! I added one tablespoon of flour since it had been raining here for days and it was very humid. I didn't separate the dough since I wanted one large loaf. The dough turned out beautiful and soft with great flavor.

This is not a review - I'm just trying it for the first time and hoping someone could respond with advice. My bread machine dough cycle is 1 1/2 hr long including 2 rising cycles. I'm wondering if I should take it out after the initial mixing and follow the recipe from there or go the 1 1/2 hr in the machine and then add the separate "rising times" in the recipe. Any input is appreciated! Thanks..

LOL it's sooooo easy and comes out awesome each and every time. it makes great panini too! oh and i love one of the reviewers "mistakes" where she forgot to take the bread out of the machine to let it rest, and ended up letting it rest in the machine! one less messy step! Thanks for a great recipe Marina :)

Surprisingly easy to make, very little fuss for an absolutely amazingly delicious bread. We used it for caprese sandwiches, and they were WONDERFUL. Will make regularly.
