Wrap whole baguettes in foil, heat, and serve warm with olive oil.
This classic French loaf is a light yeast bread made with water instead of milk, then formed into a long, narrow, cylindrical loaf. Brushing the loaf with water during the baking process creates the characteristic crisp, golden-brown crust.
Varieties
Baguettes are available in whole-wheat or traditional white versions. Demi-baguettes and ficelle are smaller versions of the classic long bread.
Preparation, uses, and tips
Wrap whole baguettes in foil, heat, and serve warm with butter or olive oil; slice baguettes partway through into 2-inch (5-cm) segments and sprinkle garlic, butter, and fresh rosemary into the slits.
