Learn how to make homemade, warm ciabatta bread from BHG.com. It's all about the air pockets when it comes to ciaabatta bread's texture. Here's the secret - ciabatta bread's signature holey texture comes from the way it's shaped. Be sure to let the dough rest and relax for   about 10 minutes after kneading. This way, the bread dough will be much easier to work with when laying it on the pan. The secret to shaping the dough is to pull the dough instead of rolling it. Rolling pushes out the desired air pockets that form during rising.  Good ciabatta is about the holes and texture.
