A baguette is a long, slender loaf of crusty white wheat bread with a crisp, blistered crust and a tender, airy crumb. It tastes mildly yeasty with a toasty aroma; the crust shatters audibly while the interior stays chewy, making it ideal for sandwiches, crostini, croutons, and breadcrumbs; sold whole or pre-sliced.\n\nIt originated in France and became emblematic of French baking in the early 20th century. Bakers develop flavor through long fermentation, shape into slender batons, and score the surface to control oven spring; the style spread globally through artisan bakeries.
