Italian bread without gluten

After years of testing recipes finally I found an Italian gluten-free bread that pleased the whole family. After all, the food is not made only for those who are celiac, residents of the house end up having to eat together, both the cross contamination that should not exist as the high cost and time spent on preparing two meals / different recipes.

Tips to make the recipe work

Important: each step of the recipe must be followed exactly so that it works. The big secret is in fermentation so the longer the dough is at rest, the more the bread will grow and get airy inside. It is not recommended to let the bread rise at room temperature and then put it in the oven. I made this mistake and the result was a recipe, that despite looking good, got blown away and nobody wanted to eat.
