ITALIAN BREAD RECIPE: HOW TO MAKE IT - TASTE OF HOME
My family laughs at me when I tell them that this poor dough never has a change for an hour, but it makes up for all that punching down with its texture and good taste. My mother-in-law taught me how to make this bread...now the recipe's been passed down to my daughter and two granddaughters.

ITALIAN CIABATTA BREAD ROLLS RECIPE | CHEFDEHOME.COM
My family loves all kinds of fresh baked breads and I also make breads at home to get chance to make them healthy. You know, low sugar, no chemicals and above all fresh taste. Who does not love that?!
I usually make two batches of Ciabatta Bread Dinner Rolls at weekend and freeze'em..... then enjoy fresh bread WHOLE week.

Often, I bake four big rolls or sometimes, I make small eight rolls. This is totally per need, once you perfect the bread dough, you can make any shape or sizes desired.

In my home, everyone need reason to devour bread. Other than galloping it in dinner with some hot spicy curry, soup or pasta, we love trying various ways to eat fresh Ciabatta.

We turned it into garlic bread, even made ciabatta bread pizza, toasted and topped with cream cheese for breakfast, made croutons and what not!! Sweet fragrance of fresh baked bread rolls make you crave for these soft pillow ciabatta rolls even more.
For new bakers, Italian or Country-Style breads are best way to start bread baking at home. Few important things when making ciabatta rolls - first and foremost kneading, kneading for suggested time enhance the quality and texture of the bread and it is great exercise too ;) Second, is baking time and temperature. Bake ciabatta at specified temperature, for only 22 minutes first and then keep checking every one minute, if bread sounds hollow when tapped at the bottom, DO NOT over-bake it, that turns the bread dry.

Make ahead Ciabatta Rolls for Christmas dinner and I tell you, you will thank me for this excellent recipe.
