French baguettes
This classic of French baking is rather different from the recipe for leavened bread, it's a question of making a good crust and light crumb along the whole length. To succeed, you should know that there are two secrets: water first of all (much more than for normal bread), and the working of the dough, which is also very different.

After cooking this give a succession of thin crisp pastry leaves that produce exceptional desserts or pies. It's a jewel of French patisserie. Making your own puff pastry is not very difficult, it's just a little work with a good recipe (like this one!). This recipe is for quick puff pastry ("feuilletage rapide") perfect for beginners.

  • For Annie : Yes no problem at all with parchment paper and conventional oven. Think to well close parchment paper enveloppe by several foldings, preheat your oven at 360°F (180°C) and let stay in about 10 to 15 minutes.

  • How about using parchment paper, and would this work in a conventional oven?
