My first baguette is in the oven AS I TYPE!
I let the dough sit for 7 days and the top was quite dried out and hard. I threw it away. Smart move or dumb one?
Well, Lynda, neither smart nor dumb - so long as it was refrigerated. Me, I would have shaped it into a quick ball, let it rise, and baked it. I'm betting it would have been QUITE sour, but may have tasted pretty good nonetheless. Good luck with the baguette in the oven - hope it turned out beautifully! PJH
