First attempt at baguettes. Came out better than I expected.
Mostly following this:
- Good lord, pups, look at that wide open crumb.
I can smell all this.Continuity - Look at those holes!

- Mmmm, all those holes to hold beef stew gravy or chili.Akagiyama
- C'est Magnifique._me_
- Does that need any specialised crap?maikel
- O.o Allez ! J'apporte le vin et le fromage ...OBBTKN
- How was the crust, pups?Continuity
- @maikel specialised crap makes it easier, but I think not necessary. I bought some stuff in preparation cos I had a memetic response to it.skinny_puppy
- @continuity could be better. It was a thin shell that cracked - not the thick tough scrapping yr palate that artisanal breads sometimes have...skinny_puppy
- ...which pleased me, but also now made me annoyed with local bakers. But it wasn't crackly like I think it should be. Need to fine tune the baking process.skinny_puppy
- Frankly, I prefer a thinner crust. Call me crazy, but I kind of object to getting my mouth lacerated by a jambon beurre sandwich.Continuity
