Subject: whole wheat ciabatta

Anyone have a good recipe for a ciabatta style loaf made with other than white flour. I can't find anything with long enough gluten strands to make a bread with a good chew

how are you making it ? and how long are you letting it rise?

I have two different King Arthur Flour recipes that I haven't made yet but plan to try sometime soon. Since I haven't made them yet, I really can't comment on their gluten development, their crumb or chew. I have the cookbooks but the recipes and photos are available online perhaps you would like to check out these web sites and recipes...

From The Fresh Loaf web site - Ciabatta Integrale (made with half whole wheat flour and half bread flour).

From the King Arthur Flour "Bakers' Banter" web site - Harvest Grains Ciabatta (made with half whole wheat flour and half unbleached all-purpose flour).
