French Bread

Overview

When it comes to making bread, the sweet texture and appearance of sweet bread are certainly attractive, but I prefer to make French bread, which can be eaten with various side dishes, not only for breakfast, but also for lunch and dinner. This bread contains less sugar and oil in French bread, which makes it healthier to eat, has a chewy texture, has a unique flavor, and requires fewer ingredients. It is relatively simple to make. Friends, you may want to try it if you have time~~~
