Baking mixture for 4 Baguettes:
- Open the freshness seal and put the baking mixture in a bowl. Add 450 ml lukewarm water (see water line in can) and knead the dough with your hands, with a food processor or with the Thermomix for 3 minutes.
- Let the dough rest covered in a bowl for 30-60 minutes at room temperature (ca.24°C).
- Put the dough on a floured worktop and divide it with a dough scraper into 2-4 pieces. Form each piece of dough into a rectangle (ca. 8x 10 cm), flour it a bit and roll it up. Roll the dough rolls with the end up and with both of your hands on a well floured worktop longer (ca.25 cm) by increasing the pressure on the palm of your hands, and so then sharpen the ends.
- Place the formed Baguette with the end down on a baking tray covered with baking paper and let it rise covered in a warm place (ca. 24°C).
- Tip: As the dough is a bit sticky, we recommend to flour your hands and the worktop to form the baguette and then form it quickly.
- Preheat the oven to 230°C (top and bottom heat).
- Incise the surface of the Baguettes with a sharp knife several times.
- Spread or sprinkle some lukewarm water on the Baguettes.
- Tip: To make the Baguettes even crunchier, moisten the baking paper with water.
- 4 Baguettes: bake at 230°C 17-20 minutes
2 Baguettes: bake at 230°C 10 minutes, then decrease the heat to 190°C and bake them for another 15 minutes. - Take them from the baking tray, let them cool on a cooling rack and serve them.
