Ciabatta is a classic Italian white bread known for its rustic appearance and chewy texture. Made from simple ingredients like wheat flour, water, salt, olive oil, and yeast, it's distinguished by its airy crumb and crisp crust. Originating in Italy in the 1980s as a response to French baguettes, ciabatta has become a staple in sandwiches and as a table bread. While its flavor and texture are beloved, ciabatta is relatively low in fiber and high in carbohydrates due to its refined flour content. Olive oil contributes some heart-healthy fats, but portions should be mindful as ciabatta can be calorie-dense. It's best enjoyed as part of a balanced diet, paired with fresh, nutrient-rich toppings or alongside hearty soups and salads to enhance its nutritional value.
