Okay, so I’ve been trying to up my bread game lately, specifically with baguettes, ’cause who doesn’t love a good, crusty baguette, right? I found this thing called a “baguette bread mold”, and figured I’d give it a shot. It’s basically this long tray with these curved sections to shape the baguettes as they bake.
First, I had to make the dough. I’m not gonna lie, I’m still kinda new to this, so it took a couple of tries to get the dough right. I mixed the ingredients, let it rise, and prayed to the bread gods. Then, I divided the dough and tried to shape these long, skinny loaves. It was messy, to say the least.
Next, I carefully placed each piece of dough into the mold. They looked kinda sad and deflated, but I had faith. I had to let them rise again in the mold, which felt like it took forever. I kept checking on them every few minutes, watching them slowly puff up.
Finally, it was time to bake. I preheated the oven, put the mold inside. The whole kitchen started to smell amazing, like a real bakery. I watched through the oven window, and they actually started to look like real baguettes! It felt like a miracle, honestly.
When they were done, I pulled them out of the oven. They were golden brown and crispy. I was so proud, I almost cried. They weren’t perfect, but they were definitely the best baguettes I’d ever made.
- Step 1: Make the dough (this might take practice!).
- Step 2: Shape the dough into long logs (it’s gonna be messy!).
- Step 3: Place the dough in the baguette mold and let it rise again (patience is key!).
- Step 4: Bake until golden brown and your house smells like heaven.
- Step 5: Enjoy your homemade baguettes! (and feel like a baking pro).
It is not difficult to make delicious baguette bread
Using this mold made the whole process so much easier, and the results were way better than when I tried to free-form them. These molds can make all sorts of shapes, like round, square, or even triangular ones. It’s pretty cool. If you’re into baking bread, I definitely recommend checking out these baguette molds. You can find them in all sorts of unique and custom designs. They really make a difference!
