    No, you can definitely halve this and most bread recipes, Suzy! Most make two loaves simply because bread takes a fair bit of time to make, so if you're making one, you might as well make two. But there's no reason you can't make one if you prefer! The only caveat to this is that if you're making an enriched dough that calls for an odd number of eggs, round up to the nearest when dividing the recipe in half. Life's too short to be measuring out half an egg. 😁 -👩‍🍳Kat

    I've had a love affair with ciabatta since I was Arlo's age it's great to see boys in the kitchen learning from the parents, my first loaf at 12yrs old was ciabatta I was very proud of myself it tasted amazing, keep on learning Arlo 👍

    The son is either going to grow up hating the sight of dough or he will become a bread-making aficionado.
    My dad would make me tidy up, clean the dishes, keep the garden clean and tidy, keep his paperwork organised and filed. I didn't hate it but I didn't enjoy it either. I did feel that I was given these chores because I was the youngest whilst my brothers were out enjoying their time.
    Well, as an adult I have become my dad. The organisation he instilled in me as a kid became a part of me by the time I was 17 years old and has stayed with me ever since. My brothers on the other hand are proper slobs.

    Hi Martin. I am glad I found this video! I fancy myself a home baker - cake and pastry, but bread is not something I have really tried my hand at since I made bread years ago. Simple stuff. I was looking at the KA website for some inspiration and saw the recipe for Rustic Italian Ciabatta which looked so good! If I tried to make this by just following the recipe I imagine it would have been a huge flop and that sort of disappointment would probably have put me off trying my hand at bread again! I searched UA-cam for King Arthur Rustic Italian Ciabatta and yours was the first video I found. Good thing - this is not a beginner level recipe. I was familiar with biga, but poolish (and I also read about sponge) is new territory. I I will definitely do more research and change my approach to bread-making. Back to the pastry world for me for now - off to make a maple pecan tart. (I just went back to the KA recipe and noticed that this video is mentioned and the link to this video is there...)

    I hope this does not sound like nitpicking but for me it is a bit confusing when the recipe is different from the video. A few examples: Martin suggest proofing for 45 to 60 minutes because the dough does not "tolerate" a long time to proof. Recipe says 90 to 120 minutes. Recipe: start with 500° turn down to 425°. If I am not mistaken the oven shows 550° when Martin opens it. Martin takes the loaves out immediately, recipe says ciabatta to cool completely in the oven. Color: mahogany, recipe: golden brown.
    Any suggestion what the better way is to get a nice ciabatta?

    • @KingArthurBakingCompany
      @KingArthurBakingCompany  4 роки тому +1

      Hi there, Hans! Rise times can really vary depending on the weather, right now here in Vermont, it's quite hot and humid (which is not the norm for us!). You want to use the times given in a recipe as a guide but go more so by how your dough looks and feels in comparison to the descriptors given in the instructions. This is also the case with ovens - every oven is different and a lot of them are off a bit. It's likely that the oven used here runs a bit cool so Martin counteracted that by increasing the oven temperature to achieve a nice bake. When it comes to cooling the ciabatta, letting it rest in the oven helps to slow the cooling process as cooling bread in a drafty environment can make for a wrinkly surface but when it's fairly warm in the kitchen it's alright to let the loaf cool at room temperature. We hope this helps to clarify and happy baking! Morgan@KAF

    Good to know that I'm supposed to use a lot of flour for the work bench for ciabatta. My only attempt so far it stuck to everything and when I tried to divide it into loaves I couldn't manage it, ended up roughly shaping it and made a giant loaf.

  • @valemodsVD
    @valemodsVD 3 роки тому +2

    I'm sorry but you can't call it biga, Piergiorgio Giorilli would cry if he sees something like that being called biga 😭 You did something between poolish (100% hydration) and biga (45-50% hydration) and you have a 75% hydration with your "biga" which is basically an un-kneaded dough and not a preferment anymore. Biga should be way drier and rough/almost-floury (as it's only 45% hydration) and should not form the gluten whatsoever (as well as the poolish) when mixed and rested. If the preferment forms the gluten then it's not a biga but more of an "autolysis" which is a completely different product. 😎
    However the rest of the process looks good and ciabattas looks legit! Bravo! 👌

    • @KingArthurBakingCompany
      @KingArthurBakingCompany  3 роки тому +1

      Hey, VD, Martin here.
      Thanks for checking in.
      The hydration is high on that biga, I agree. I’ve worked with Ezio Marinato and I’m a fan of the ~45-50% range but have also worked with other Italians who’ve been mid-50s, and, in production I’ve used slightly higher. In my book I used 60 to make things easier for the home baker to incorporate by hand-in my experience the floral characteristics still come through, even in the 60% range. Send us some pictures of your Ciabatta, I bet it’s great!
      Happy baking, Martin@KA

    Hello again. I made the Ciabatta and it was the best I ever made and tasted. Thank you so much for sharing your technique and KA recipe. I was afraid it would not turn out since the dough was so soft. I flipped like you showed on your video and placed them on parchment paper. The looked terrible and wrinkled. But I had faith and put the on the hot stone and added water to my hot skillet for steam. OMG! I was so amazed how nicely they rose. It was hard to wait letting them cool in the oven but worth it. Thank you a dozen. You are the best. Wish I could send a photo.

    Great video. But I am a little skittish about adding boiling water to acast iron pan on the bottom of the oven. I have read fairly consistently that doing that could ruin an oven that has modern digital temperature controls. Old fashioned ovens, no problem. In fact, I posed this question to Customer Relations at Samsung where I bought a new oven and they quickly said that would damage the workings of the unit. My GE Profile oven at home, according to GE Customer Relations, was fine to use this technique but I really think (in fact, I know) they don't have oven experts answering these types of queries. What I have done is put water in a spray bottle and spritzed the dough rather than go the full bore cast iron pan technique. I am interested in hearing what you say about it. Thanks for all the great videos and recipes and information!

    • @KingArthurBakingCompany
      @KingArthurBakingCompany  3 роки тому +1

      We can totally understand that, Neal! In an oven with the electric control panel on the front of the oven rather than the back above the burners, too much exposure to steam can damage the panel. We always recommend following a manufacturer's guidance for appliances. If you have concerns, you can also try using a covered baking vessel such as an oven-safe Dutch oven which will trap steam rather than requiring you to add additional steam to the oven. We hope this can help and happy baking! Morgan@KA

    The only difference between biga and poolish is the quantity of water. Both use yeast in a small amount added to flour and water to make the preferment. A poolish uses 1:1 flour to water, a biga uses less water.

    I like the video. One thing I've noticed across the board, Is that nobody makes a point to explain whether they're using a bake setting on their ovens or whether they're using a convection bake setting etc.
    That is such a key piece of information that is never freely shared. I'm sure it makes a difference in the outcome. And I wonder if that alone doesn't lead to some big disappointment after someone has put in so much effort to follow.
    Would you mind sharing which oven setting you find to be the best for this particular bread? Thank you

    According to the linked recipe, the biga has a hydration of 75%. But the biga in the video looks to be of a lower, more traditional biga hydration, no?
    Hopefully I'm not coming off as rude.. and I'm willing to admit I could be totally wrong! However I just mixed the preferment according to the written recipe (using the same KA bread flour) and it seems too wet to be classified as a biga. Maybe it will appear 'drier' as gluten develops overnight?

      @KingArthurBakingCompany  2 роки тому

      Hi Justin! As the biga ferments and rises, it will appear to be less wet.

      Hi Epp, 80° may be a little warm especially for 14 hours. Your biga was most likely overripe and past its prime. Next time use very cold water and bake with the biga sooner. You need to adjust the length of time because of the temperature. If your kitchen is hot, then the biga will be ready sooner than the recipe says. Using cold water will slow the process down. If your kitchen is cold, then your biga will take longer to fully mature. As we like to say, "the dough will tell you when, not the clock." Good luck and happy baking! Kindly, -👨‍🍳Jonathan

      @KingArthurBakingCompany  4 роки тому +1

      Hi yvettekassin, They would except that in step 5, you're going to put the second batch in the fridge after they proof for a while on the counter. It will be a little tricky because you want that second batch to proof properly but because of your ambient high temperature, you don't want them to overproof while the first loaves are baking. It's a bit of trial and error but try proofing the second batch for 30 minutes on your counter (along with the first batch) and then put them in the fridge well covered in lightly oiled plastic, making sure the plastic isn't going to stick. When the first loaves emerge from the oven, take out your second batch. They may need a little more time on the counter to proof properly before baking. You'll have to see how well they proofed before you refrigerated them. Good luck and let us know how it turns out. Jonathan@KA

    I'm a little confused on the final proof time of ciabatta. Your website and a lot of other people say to proof for 1 and a half to 2 hours. Then in your video and others say not near as long. Is it preference?

    • @KingArthurBakingCompany
      @KingArthurBakingCompany  3 роки тому +1

      Hello Kris! The length of the proof depends on time and temperature. The longer proof takes place in cooler temperatures, and more quickly in warmer temperature, so times can vary. Look for your shaped ciabatta to look fluffy and marshmallow-like, then it's oven time! Robyn@KA

    • @KingArthurBakingCompany
      @KingArthurBakingCompany  3 роки тому +1

      For many types of bread? Yes. For ciabatta specifically? No. Ciabatta is an extremely wet dough, and one that can be difficult for many folks to work with even with the added strength and absorption of bread flour. Ciabatta is beloved for it's gorgeous air holes and delicate structure, and it really does rely on that extra boost from the additional gluten in bread flour to be successful. Kat@KA

    Going to make this bread for sure. One question. When you put the bread into the oven it was on the top stone. When you took it out, it was on the bottom stone. Did you move them during baking?

    • @KingArthurBakingCompany
      @KingArthurBakingCompany  4 роки тому +1

      We're gonna go with: it was a little bit of movie magic. Like when the celebrity chef 'magically' removes the perfectly baked thing just after mixing it. But we do highly recommend the use of a baking stone either way. Not just for making exquisite crusts, but for regulating heat as well. It's sort of a game-changer. Ethan@KAF

      @@KingArthurBakingCompany my thought was that the middle pizza stone was there to provide a buffer between the bread and the heat source in the bottom of the oven. I definitely use a pizza stone when I bake, but generally not directly on the stone. I will try that when I do my ciabatta from this recipe. Should I have my stone up off the floor of the oven?

    • @KingArthurBakingCompany
      @KingArthurBakingCompany  4 роки тому +1

      Hi Snoopaka, The middle stone was used because the top of the bread was getting a little too much color. Your stone should be on a wire rack in the middle of the oven. Depending on your results, you can adjust the rack up or down. Kindly, Jonathan@KAF

    In the video Martin mixes with a spoon, then stretches and folds. The video fast forwards so it is hard to see and time the whole process. The recipe calls for 5 to 6 minutes in a stand mixer. Yesterday I took a virtual KA Ciabatta class. We kneaded 1 formula, and simply mixed 1 formula. I have made the Rustic Ciabatta several times, kneading by hand. So, what method is recommended, and why? Also, this formula has less oven-rise than others, including in the class. Don't get me wrong, I love the shape and texture of the loaf. But I'd like to understand why it happens.

    • @KingArthurBakingCompany
      @KingArthurBakingCompany  3 роки тому

    • @KingArthurBakingCompany
      @KingArthurBakingCompany  3 роки тому

      Hi Barry, as you learned in class, both hand mixing and machine mixing work. Neither is recommended over the other except that mechanical mixing is quicker and for some, more straightforward as you are not dealing with a sticky dough on your dough scraper and hands. By "oven-rise" do you mean oven spring? Oven spring is determined by so many factors including yeast activity, dough hydration, bulk fermentation, shaping, and oven steaming to name a few. As a result, it's hard to say why this particular recipe, at any given time, had less oven spring than another similar recipe. I encourage you to keep baking these recipes, find one that you like and then keep baking that recipe and keep tweaking it until you are satisfied with the outcomes. Kindly, Jonathan@KA

      We're so sorry to hear that you're having such trouble with this one, Mike! Are you using a scale to measure your ingredients or volume? If you're using volume, it could be that a bit too much flour is sneaking its way into the mixing bowl which can make for a less airy interior. We recommend either using a kitchen scale to weigh your ingredients or using the fluff and sprinkle technique (shown here:www.kingarthurbaking.com/videos/baking-skills/how-to-measure-flour) for measuring flour in volume. It's also important to resist the urge to add more flour unless the dough is truly soupy too - it should be a pretty slack dough. We hope this helps! Morgan@KA

    • @mikevanadestine7534
      @mikevanadestine7534 4 роки тому

    • @KingArthurBakingCompany
      @KingArthurBakingCompany  4 роки тому

      It could be the flour! Bleached flour usually has a lower protein content, causing it to absorb less liquid which can compromise the structure of the bread. We'd recommend holding back a 1/4 cup of the water and adding it slowly as needed to achieve the right consistency. We hope this helps! Kindly, Morgan@KA
