Traditional French Baguette

French baguettes are always my husbands favorite as he prefers salty bread rather than sweet. And hence this is my determination to keep myself updated and improve in the making bread area. Today, my baking chemistry is towards the chewy traditional bread, indeed the baguette taste are so much different from Europe or Australia. The main factor in fact is due to the flour quality that hardly can be found in Malaysia.
