Kat and Paul have been watching BBC’s Bake Off and decided they would have a go at making baguettes. I came home on Saturday to the delicious smell of baking bread and a kitchen covered in floury fingerprints. Paul had even made a contraption to help mould the dough into baguette shapes while it was proving.

Today Paul surprised me again by presenting me with freshly baked croissants. He cheated this time though and bought the frozen pre-made dough from the local deli. Tomorrow it’s going to be chocolatinas!
I need to get those pedals back on my bike so I can start cycling the calories off!
Oh my, a husband who bakes bread! He's a keeper! -Jenn
ReplyDeleteI might keep him if he plays his cards right.
DeleteCan I borrow him sometime please?
ReplyDeleteI'll send him over Pat!
DeleteHow lovely!
ReplyDeleteI'm always happy to eat freshly baked bread.
DeleteThat is how to turn a house into a home! My husband barely knows where to find the oven; he is pretty good at eating my baked goods, though, so I'll keep him on.
ReplyDeleteFresh baking always makes a house smell good.
DeleteLove baguettes, I should try making them.
ReplyDeleteHe used a breadmaker to mix the dough, proved them twice and then baked them in the oven. Steam in the oven was the secret for a crusty crust.
DeleteYou do a lot of eating.
ReplyDeleteI love my food, always have.
DeleteSandrine (Frayssinet baker) says he can have a job any day.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure Paul would like that!
DeleteYou have got Paul well trained. Does he also run for sticks?
ReplyDeleteOnly when he's in a good mood.
