Tutorial – Baguettes traditionnelles

by Jarrod Suda

Hello fellow ECers and friends to IHEID!

Please enjoy this homemade video and this baguette recipe that I’ve been trying. I think it could be a fun way to develop a micro-mastery or simply pass a lazy Sunday. Make sure to share with your friends and family the next time you break bread!
