French Baguette Platter

Placing a cup of water in a cake tin helps the Baguette to form soft chewy middle and brown crispy top. After baking, tap the Baguette to hear the hollowness of a Perfect French Baguette. Toppings can be changed according to an individual taste. A hot cuppa coffee with Baguette too is my choice.
