Baguettes

Tilberedning

1. 1

   Mix the wheat flour and water together and let the dough sit covered for 1 hour.

2. 2

   Add salt and crumbled yeast, and knead the dough for about 8 minutes. Place the dough in a warm place for 2 hours.

3. 3

   Dust the countertop with flour and gently place the dough on it. Use a dough cutter or a sharp knife to divide the dough into equal parts. One portion makes 3 baguettes.

4. 4

   Shape the dough into elongated baguettes. Set them aside and let them proof for 30 minutes.

5. 5

   Preheat the oven to 250 degrees Celsius. If you have a baking steel or pizza stone, it's perfect to use it now.

6. 6

   Make 3 cuts on the top of the bread with a dough scorer or a sharp knife. For an extra crispy crust, you can brush or spray a little water over the baguettes before baking them for 20 minutes. Keep an eye on them to prevent them from getting burnt.
