Thanks so much for the beautiful step by step. I am mostly self taught and do slow rising artisan breads a lot. I am still struggling to learn. Your reassuring, concise comments and photos are terrific. I have a terror of slashing loaves and always thought deflating them meant I had done it wrong. Your seed mix formula and method for getting it stuck to the loaves is great. I love this kind of bread and will be trying baguettes again now with this confidence boost from you.
