Original baguette
Overview
Baguette is the most traditional French bread and is rich in nutrients. The representative of French bread is baguette. The original meaning of baguette is a long gem. The recipe of French baguette is very simple, using only four basic ingredients: flour, water, salt and yeast. Usually no sugar, no milk powder, no or almost no oil is added. The wheat flour is unbleached and contains no preservatives. In terms of shape and weight, each piece is 76cm long and weighs 250g. It is also stipulated that the bevel cut must have 7 slits to be standard. Baguette is to France what rice is to China and macaroni is to Italy. It is simple and elegant, and its production process reflects the baker's full respect and ingenuity for bread. I have been involved in baking for more than a year, but I have never tried baguettes. Today is my first challenge and I don’t know if it is right. If there is something wrong, please ask an expert to point it out in time so that it can be improved next time~`~
