1. Dutch liquorice 2. French baguette (fresh!)

We will never buy bread ever again from a shop. Covid lockdowns has taught us to bake fresh baguettes at home that beats every bakery in the world.

No it doesn't, unless you have a bread oven and a lot of experience. A good recipe is not enough to make a great bread, let alone "beat every bakery in the world".

There is absolutely nothing special you need. This is a professional chef teaching how to make bread, its not baguette but you get the point.

Also, bread is way better when it is warm out of the oven. This you cannot if you purchase it at the bakery and bring it home.

What recipe do you use? Never could get close to what a typical French baguette tastes like.
