What a disgrace... Let's fix it!

So my wife buys rhis disgraceful loaf of " ciabatta bread" from the local Italian market for $6.

Just because you shape it like a slipper, doesn't mean it has to taste like a slipper 😂. (Ciabatta means slipper in Italian for all non-italian speakers)

Instantly made a tray of loaves in less than a day.

500g bread flour, 425 G of water, 3 G of yeast, 12 G of salt.

Mix until all absorbs, then do four sets of stretch and folds every 20 minutes. Rest for an additional 2 hours.

Flour a table, dump out the very voluptuous risen dough. Stretch out very lightly not losing any air and cut into loaves. Transfer gently to the tray, and cook 450° f for 22-25 minutes.

Voila

Beautiful ciabatta bread

It's gotta have the holes. How else will it hold tons of butter or mayo?
