Hello Joyce. Ciabatta is such a lovely bread and as Jon has described, has a really crispy crust, lots of holes in the dough and it is lovely used for sandwiches but really great as a dipping bread in flavoured herbed olive oils and dukkah. Its good with any dip spread on too, especially with a feta, mint and olive dip and its also good toasted. Im hoping to make some later this week , or at least have a go, but right now I have a lot of bread dough to use. I made the 12 day recipe bread a few days ago, I have the biggest bowl of dough I the fridge, Day two, I made two pizza from some of the dough, it rolled out really well. I made one pizza as was described, placing filling on and then proceed to cook without waiting, the other base I let the dough sit for about ¾ of an hour, dough base had just slightly risen by then. Both pizza bases were good, but preferred the one where the base had been let sit for a while From the day two dough, I was very happy with the second pizza. Have others tried the recipe, was it Carolyn that sent it in originally? Cheers. Valerie
