Possible to Make Batard Out of Baguette Dough?

Profile picture for user Song Of The Baker

Hey all.  Been a long time.  Can one use a baguette recipe dough (eg. Bouabsa) and shape it into a batard without any issues? I assume the bake time and possibly final proof time would be longer?

Miss this site but havent been baking for years!

Nice to see you posting again.  How's the paining business now that summer is over?  Must be working inside!

Happy baking

Hey Dabrowny!  It is busy as always!  Our summer season only makes our operations a bit busier.  Most of our work throughout the year is interior, but yes our exterior work does make us busier

Can't believe it was 2014 Xmas season since my last real bake.  Made the odd pizza since then, and the odd dessert, but really no true bread baking.  The starter has been asleep in the fridge since.  Ahh to be retired dabrowny.  I can see you haven't slowed down baking at all in beautiful AZ.

Keep baking!
