The humble baguette is the epitome of French baking.
The perfect loaf, delicately crusty outside, soft and airy inside, is worth the airfare to Paris all on its own. But while its ingredients may be simple, its preparation can be an art form – something recognized annually when judges gather to anoint the French capital’s best bread at the “Grand Prix de la Baguette de Tradition Francaise de la Ville De Paris” contest. On May 10, at the contest’s 30th edition, bakers came early from across the city to submit their entries.
Appearance, smell, baking technique and flavor are all considered. But is there really that much difference between each loaf? “Oh yes, oh there’s no question,” Polski splutters, indignant at the suggestion that individual loaves might taste the same as others. “On the contrary, it may be counter-intuitive, but in fact you know very quickly.” Polski says she could tell the winner almost immediately.
