A No Knead Ciabatta Loaf
Ingredients

Mix all of the above gently till it comes together and place back into your bowl, then let it prove for 18 hours under a towel at room temperature till it has more than doubled in size and is full of bubbles.
Turn out onto a well floured surface and flatten, then fold into thirds and flatten slightly again to make a slipper shape and place in a well floured strong baking sheet.
Leave for another couple of hours with a towel to cover, then once risen again, pop into oven at 220/425/Gas mark 7 for 40 minutes.
The ciabatta will be well risen with a crusty Crust and lovely spongy open crumb.
