Directions

  1. Sprinkle the yeast into the warm water and dissolve it. ≈ 4 min
  2. Add the sugar, salt, wheat flour, and most of the flour to the mixture. ≈ 3 min
  3. Add the oil and knead, adding flour gradually until the dough forms a smooth, firm ball that detaches from the mixing bowl. ≈ 10 min
  4. Let it double in size while warm and covered, then knead it well and divide it into two or three portions.
  5. Cut each piece into an oval shape, about 40 cm long, roll it into a baguette shape, and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to allow it to rise.
  6. Slice the baguettes diagonally with a sharp knife. ≈ 3 min
  7. Bake for approximately 15 minutes at 225 °C (450 °F) in the middle of the oven, spraying with water two or three times for a crispy crust.
  8. Let it cool on the baking sheet, without using a dishcloth.
