Making baguette
Asked on 1 Oct 2020 by Angie
Hi Lindsey
I’m having trouble making a bread baguette!
It spreads out and doesn’t rise properly! I have used
A baguette mould to make the second and final rise,
But it still spreads out!
I would be grateful for any tips.
Many thanks Angela

Hello Angela,
I’m not sure from your post if you’re asking about Delia’s recipe or another? We make a simple version of a baguette which we show in the cookery school….

Hi Lindsey
Thank you for getting back to me so quickly! and for the link to Delia's bread making video.
Yes I was talking about the video! Delia shows how to make baguettes with the same bread dough but it still spread out! I have tried it a couple of times and
It still spreads out!
Kindest regards Angela
Hello Angela,
Our French Bread are a simple version of the classic. If you want a narrower stick, I’d divide the dough into three and bake the third on a separate sheet or shape and bake it after the first two.
Kind regards
Lindsey
