Well, almost. I got another opportunity to try my hand at Anis Baguettes this past weekend when my wife asked me to make some for appetizers for a family gathering. The shaping and slashing went a little better this time. My only mistake was not doubling the recipe. The bread was devoured instantly to a chorus of Oooohs , Ahhhhs and Wonderfuls!
I can see why these were devoured with such pleasure! Lovely layout and the baguettes look perfectly delectable. You'll have to do a repeat again and again, I'm sure!

Hi hi hi... told you so! Glad you liked it. It's a fun one to make, don't you think?

and the 21 hour fermentation/retardation is a bonus. I can time it to have these baguettes ready whenever I want.

Not only do your creations look beautiful, but the photographs are quite lovely. As an amateur food photographer, I really appreciate a yummy photograph. :-)

Very NICE crumb and crust. Thanks for sharing.

to eveyone for the encouraging words.
I'm always amazed at how thankful people are when I give them a loaf of my sourdough and after they've tasted it, they track me down to tell me how good it was and how much they enjoyed it. The "oohs" and "ahhhs" are one of the things that make bread making so much fun.
And Allison, your comments on the photos are especially appreciated.
