Ciabatta Bread
This is an Italian white bread with the literal translation of the word slipper because of its shape. Since the 1990's it has been popular across Europe and in the United states being used widely as a sandwich bread.
If you travel to Italy you will find that in each region they have their own version of this bread. From the area encompassing Lake Como their version of this bread has a crisp crust, a soft and porous texture in the middle, and is light to the touch. In Tuscany, Umbria, and Marche this bread ranges from firm crust and dense insides to a crisper crust and a more open texture inside.
