'''The baguette''' ('''French stick''' or '''French loaf''') is a variety of French bread distinguishable by its much greater length than width, and noted for its very crispy crust. The standard girth size of a baguette is approx. 5 or 6 cm, but can be up to a meter in length.
French food laws define bread as a product containing only the following four ingredients: water, [[flour]], [[yeast]], and [[common salt]]; the addition of any other ingredient to the basic recipe requires the baker to use a different name for the final product. As a result, the traditional baguette is made from a very lean [[dough]], made from a moderately soft flour. While a typical baguette is made with a direct addition of baker's yeast, it is not unusual for artisan-style loaves to be made with a poolish or other bread pre-ferment to increase flavour complexity, as well as the addition of [[whole wheat flour]] and other grains such as [[rye]]. French bread is required by law to avoid preservatives, and as a result baguettes quite frequently stale within a day of being baked.
This baguette recipe uses no [[Fats|fats]] or [[Oils|oils]], it has a delicious light airy texture and can be made in a [[Breadmaker|breadmaker]].


Use menu 21 ''French dough'' (3 hours 35 minutes) on [[Panasonic SD-ZB2502 automatic breadmaker]]
