Another Paul Hollywood recipe, because he knows everything there is to know about bread, obvs. I tend to hum along to Fou de Fafa by Flight of the Conchords when making baguettes, or listen to my entire La Belle France playlist that I made a couple of years ago which features classics like Chanson d’Amour,… Continue reading Baguettes
