There is a baguette recipe in the Artisan Bread book, but I can't find my peel anywhere. I think it may have warped in storage and got tossed, but who knows.

I'm getting this one:

The manufacturers site has videos of it in use:

Yeah, it's a little pricey, but apparently the problem I've had with baguettes in the past is picking them up and moving them makes them "degas". Eg collapse and turn into bats.

It's actually a little cheaper than the one they had at Target.

I figure I can do without a bread knife (I should be able to use a steak knife for slashing the loaves, they're serrated too).

I've got the baking stone, don't really have to have parchment paper, but I do need a peel.

Has anybody tried the artisan bread recipe for baguettes?
