stale baguette = wiffleball bat
How long does it take for a baguette to go stale?
I hate using batteries for guitar pedals, they run out so quick!
Yeah, my AC adapter is in the midst of a very long and eccentric death.
i bought french bread at a grocery store named jewel here in chicago. the person bagging our groceries at the register took the bread and folded it in half. folded it in half! i looked at the bread oddly because i’ve never seen french bread folded in half before. the lady that folded it looked at me and said, “what, you didn’t want your bread folded?” luckily i was getting my change from the checker at that moment, so i was able to act confused and leave quickly. she folded the bread!
A baguette goes stale the second you stop watching it.
Stale french bread can be resurrected by heating in a 200 degree oven for 10 minutes… unless it’s Really Really stale.
… then you float it in French Onion Soup.
Or you can always grind it in a mortar and pestle for breadcrumbs if you’re past the resurrection stage.
I too have had my bread folded by Chicago Jewel employees. It’s good bread though.
Im the worlds for most wiffleball champion. and i endorse the whole grain goodness of stale baguette.
*Salutes*
(is “for most” one word or two??)
It’s “foremost”. The best way to resurrect stale french bread is by cutting it in half the long way and sprinkling water on it, then wrapping it in foil and sticking it in a 400 degree oven for 2 to 5 minutes, but if it gets to the staleness point where you can’t cut it in half anymore, it’s pretty much a done deal :S
other possible resurection is croutons or garlic toasts. bread -> cubes -> toss in flavored olive oil -> sprinkle with salt -> spread out on a baking sheet -> bake in the oven low until they are crunchy. or just find some power tool that will let you slice it thin put the slices under a broiler post smearing with butter/oil/what have you and then while they are still hot rub’em with a sliced-in-half clove of garlic. your hands will stink but your stomach will say thanks.
