National French Bread Day

On March 21st, National French Bread Day bakes up a delectable celebration enjoyed by millions around the country each year..

This is a long thin loaf made from basic lean dough and is also known as a baguette. Its length and its crisp crust distinguish it. Over time, French law has figured out what is and what isn't a baguette. A labor law in 1920 barred bakers from starting their day before 4 a.m., according to a labor law. Breadmakers know that breadmaking is a tactile process. The kneading and resting of the dough are just as important as the ingredients. Bakers knew their product so well they coped by re-shaping their loaves of bread when the day was limited. The long, narrow loaves baked more quickly and evenly. Patrons also found the new loaves more convenient for cutting and storing as a result.

These sturdy loaves make delectable sandwiches, but they also go well with any soup. Any leftover bread makes delectable French toast, as well.

The French are known for their high culinary arts, as far as culinary arts are concerned. Minimum quantities of certain quality ingredients were included in each loaf of bread to maintain quality in their bread.
