SOLUTIONS
Form a ball again, let it rest for
10 minutes and then start again from
the beginning.
Shape the dough in two steps, with
a 5 minute rest between.
Shape the baguettes again by flouring
your hands lightly, but not the dough
or the work surface if possible.
Use the finishing blade supplied or a
very sharp fine-serrated knife.
Use a quick, sharp cutting movement.
Your mixture has not been successful,
start again.
Start again, pulling the dough harder
when you wrap it around your thumb.
Refer to page 136 to see
the ideal shape for the slits.
Blot out the excess water added with
the brush.
Oil the trays lightly before placing
the dough on them.
Be careful the next time.
Brush well with water before baking.
Use colder water (between 10 and
15°C) and/or a little less yeast.
Your mixture has not been successful,
start again.
