Nota

Pan de Cristal or Sourdough Cristal Bread (very high hydration bread), mixed by hand is always a big challenge.

Sometimes it may seem like an impossible mission.

So delicate spanish version of the ciabatta bread, this sourdogh glass bread need a lot of work for gluten development and building up hydration. It requires a lot of attention and understandings in terms of fermentation and some very good skills to develop and feel the dough structure. It is definitely not for beginners.
