Crusty baguette
Description
Delicious baked goods for the whole family. I want to point out one detail: it's best to prepare the dough in the evening and leave it overnight in the refrigerator. This is very convenient if you want to bake a baguette for a late breakfast, for example. But if you're short on time, letting it rest for about 1-2 hours will suffice. I'll show you how. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
