ciabatta bread

Ciabatta is an Italian white bread made from wheat flour, water, salt, yeast and olive oil. It was created in 1982 by a baker in Adria, province of Rovigo, Veneto, Italy, in response to the popularity of French baguettes.
Ciabatta is somewhat elongated, broad and flat, and is baked in many variations, although unique for its alveolar holes. Ciabatta is made with a stronger flour and uses a much wetter dough than traditional French bread.
