Side question: Why do people buy baguettes? Do they make sandwiches with them? How do you even make a sandwich from them? How are you meant to beat a baguette???

    One’s cooked in a pan, the other not.

    You can use baguettes in multiple ways like other breads, imagination is the limit.

    -Cut it on the bias (at an angle), toast and use to dip in soup or mop up sauce. I do this with onion soup to top it, buttered and sprinkled with a good melting cheese, place on top of soup in bowl and broil in oven until melted and browning.

    -Slice in half long ways, butter with a good garlic butter recipe, bake in oven until browned serve with spaghetti.

    -Once it’s old, stale and hard, cube it up (can do it fresh too) use as croutons for salads or grind it up for bread crumbs to cook with.
