The recipe and technique I used for those who are curious. https://youtu.be/Z-husjZkxHw?si=N7gUUhpN1TBv6djy

Looks pretty tasty. Baguettes are the hardest to get right.

How did you do your shaping?

So I didn't really, I cut the dough into 4 strips stretched them lengthwise and baked them.

Sounds more like long Pugliese

Maybe? I don't know enough about either to know the difference.

Pugliese means ‘slipper’ in Italian and refers to the loaves being rather long and shapeless.

It was invented as an alternative/competitor to baguettes. Uses a wetter dough and minimal shaping to attain large open crumb like you have here.

That certainly matched the description. The people I have had taste it say the baguettes they had in the past tasted the same. The video with the recipe I used marketed it as a low technical skill tasty baguette. Also I thought ciabatta was "slipper".

Ah sorry mixed up those two Italian breads.

Looks delicious and I’d love another of those sandwiches in the bottom picture. 👀

Traditional french ham and butter sandwich. Or at least as traditional as I could make it, lol.
