How to Make Ciabatta Bread (Yeast-Leavened, Poolish Method)

  • Опубликовано: 31 май 2024
  • This is an adaptation of my simple sourdough ciabatta bread recipe. In place of using 100 grams of sourdough starter, we use 100 grams of poolish, equal parts by weight flour and water plus a small amount of yeast. Like the sourdough recipe, this one is very high hydration dough (82%), which means the dough will be wet and sticky, which is a little tricky to work with but well worth the trouble as it will yield a ciabatta with a crisp crust and an open-crumbed, chewy interior.
    Let me know if you have questions! Hope you love it.

    I’ve watched chef after chef videos to make bread. Some spoke French and some talked through every step, no good outcomes. I come to this channel and a mom showed me without any talking. Best results I’ve had making bread. Trust in moms!!!!!

    The recipe is very similar to this. What you seemed to have created is like an active starter without having a sourdough starter! Very interesting!

    • @AlexandraStafford
      @AlexandraStafford  2 года назад +6

      Exactly! I like the potential of this "poolish" idea for other sourdough bread recipes - it might allow those people intimidated by sourdough to get similar results without having to maintain a starter.

    Made this a couple of days ago from the recipe on the website without watching the video. It tasted great but wasn’t ciabatta, it didn’t have the big holes it’s supposed to. I’m on my second try now, reduced the water and, most importantly, watched the video! I can see all the ways I went wrong, and this second attempt looks much more like the video. So, just have to wait half a day and we’ll see what happens… wish me luck!

    do you have any tips on why my dough is so sticky? i did everything you wrote down. I don't know if my flour is bad or what. I use all purpose flour. it keep sticking so much that i can't even work. every time i do this it gets all over my hand and i end up washing them off so i basically trash like 1/3 of the dough

    • @SarahlabyrinthLHC
      @SarahlabyrinthLHC 3 месяца назад +1

      You probably need to use bread making flour which has more protein, that would also affect how sticky your dough is. You need a protein level of 12-13% in your flour.

    Thank you for sharing this recipe and your techniques!
    I'm currently making the recipe as per the website recipe, and for the poolish, I used *all-purpose flour* as listed instead of the *bread flour* you used in this video... so far the dough is.... very liquidy/hydrated and difficult to work with, almost like sourdough breads I have made. I weighed all my ingredients, with the exception of yeast. I do have small hands... but the slap and fold technique is neigh impossible, the dough tears apart instantly. Re-watching this video, I am almost shocked at the structure established after the first 30 minute rest and it seems to have much less hydration too, in comparison to mine. I will still finish this recipe, but will likely reduce water next time as suggested in the FAQ.
    But, as I came here from your website, and I'm sorta confused. For the poolish/sponge, are you meant to use *bread flour* or *all-purpose flour* ? On the website, it says to use *all-purpose flour* , but here it says *bread flour* .
    What kind of bread flour do you use? Is there a protein % included with it? I am using King Arthur at 12.7%.

      По-моему, в течение 24 часов с постановки в холодильник тесто лучше запечь.
      Поставили в холодильник, промежуточное складывание через 12 часов, потом ещё похранить в холодильнике, ну и печь. Лично я дольше суток не держала.
      На закваске, наверное, можно дольше хранить, но это не точно.
