Ciabatta Bread

In my opinion there is no better bread for regular Sandwiches. Unless im making Sub sandwiches then I use my farmer's bread. This recipe is a bit involved but it is well worth it!

Italian Dinner Roll Ciabatta Made Using a Bread Starter Italian Dinner Roll Ciabatta Made Using a Bread Starter
I wanted to make ciabatta with the full flavor of wheat...You use very little yeast in this recipe, so it takes a long time, but just take things nice and slow.The dough will be very soft and hard to handle, so dust it well and use a rubber spatula.Usually you would let the dough rise at room temperature, but when it's warm, it will rise too much; in warmer temperatures, put it in the vegetable compartment in the fridge.

Dark Bread Dark Bread
A savory dark bread we used dipping into our chili. If you use vinegar in this recipe remember it's acidic. Acid counters yeast and hinder it's rising, but it also counters gluten and breaks it down and cause it to become very sticky and a bit harder to work with. It's a welcomed flavour to this bread. A couple of tablespoons of vinegar about 3% acidity would be nice. skunkmonkey101
