Why The French Eat 30 Million Baguettes A Day - Traditional French Baguette | Food Secrets Ep. 12

A total of 30 million baguettes are eaten in France each day. At least that is what the French claim. There, only bakeries that bake fresh bread every day are allowed to call themselves a “Boulangerie”, which might explain the high quality of baguettes throughout the country. What’s more, the French bread law specifies set rules for baking baguette: The only ingredients allowed are flour, salt, water and yeast. According to law, a baguette must also weigh between 250-300 grams and have a length of 55-65 centimeters. It needs to be soft on the inside, and crispy on the outside. In this episode of Food Secrets, we let you in on what makes France’s most famous bread so special, where it originated from, and what cultural significance it has to the French.

French can be proud of their products and traditions in all senses. That’s the way to maintain people and country in harmony with their own personality and a touch of class even for humble products like the baguette. As Spaniard I admire the way they resist against fast-waste food whilst other countries are loosing personality and even healthy traditional food. When staying as guests at our friend’s in Le Pouliguen, I love to go in the morning to the village’s bakery to buy a couple of rustic baguettes and saying Bonjour….., they are so kind and polite, they sell bread and pastries but they make me feel like into a jewellery!! French baguette, open, squeeze a tomato, some drops of good olive oil (aove) and some slices of Spanish ham……. What else? yes, a glass of red wine.

If served just as pa amb tomaquet, usually sliced, it is used to accompany other meals, as per example torrades (bbq) of meat and or sausages or our lovely and funny calçotada (have a search). Often, in Catalan restaurants it is served sliced, just the bread slightly roasted, aside tomatoes + olive oil in order the client can organise himself. Some, as me, we use to rub a garlic clove over the bread slice and thereafter to rub the tomato and finish with some drops of olive oil. Just like that, with some good olives and a glass of wine is a perfect aperitif.

During the school year at lunch time students are allowed to walk around in the city, where I live in Europe (Belgium) there's barely any car in the city center in the middle of the day and everybody walks. And every other day for lunch with a friend I go to a nice charcuterie and order a fresh baguette with butter, cheese, ham, salad, slices of tomato and of course mayonnaise. And it tastes so good. ^^ It's either that or I eat at a nice take-away italian pasta restaurant. I think the schools allows that so that we participate in the city-center's life and economy, and it's such a great idea in my opinion. Of course we have to come back to school after an hour when it's the end of lunch time, but the city-center isn't that big so it's not a problem.

@@mulkanmulkan5620 if you use genuine French wheat flour, it’s a ‘wheatier’ flavor. Not like American flour. There’s a slight ‘tang’ from the sourdough, the dough is allowed to ferment or ‘age’ slightly which improves flavor. I’m sure it also depends on what type of yeast they use. The oven even makes a difference. The French have elevated baquettes to an art form. And the crust!! It literally‘sings’ when you first take it out of the oven.

In France, bread is a daily buy. Some places a basket is hung at the home's gatepost for the early delivery. Many's the time I've seen a cyclist on his way home from the village with a newspaper under one arm and couple of baguettes under the other. Baguettes are meant to be eaten the day they are baked. They don't have all the chemical preservatives and enhancers that for example American so-called "French bread baguettes" have (even the flour is different) - such adulterants are not permitted in France. You get the pure and simple bread and the taste simply does not compare. It's good the next day toasted, made into bread salad etc, but day old baguette is too dry to eat plain. Memories of Verdun.

Thanks for conjuring that quintessentially French image😊

So common to have it in here we tend to forget it's not available that easy outside france. 🙃 I wish everyone on earth would have tasted at least once. 🥖👍

Of course being French you think no one else in the world can make a good baguette. Look up the Coup de Monde bread competition and see how many times in the last 25 years the French have lost. You obviously don’t know what you’re talking about.

​it was one of our baker who invented that competition and 3 of the 4 exercize is about making french bread / pastries etc... This competition is made to spread the joy of making bread like us .

[@REMPLACEMENT-TV]

you can find good baguettes everywhere in france , so even if some good bakers are from abroad , they are an exception in their country so not the whole population will be able to try them. @@FYMASMD

@@FYMASMD level of agression , through the roof. Are you jealous of the french or something?

Great video. Just one request: can we drop the accordion music trope as mandatory on all videos relating to France? No one has played such music since WWII in France.

Delicious!!!

Wish I were there!

very simple same as in Romania... bread is life, I eat bread with soup, with stew, with salads, with cheese, with meat, with sweets, with coffee with other bread even with water.... BREAD IS LIFE

Wow, I'm a huge fan of baguettes & sourdough breads, incredibly tasty and diverse. You can have it alone or like they said with jam or cheese, or dipped in hot chocolate however my favorite is as a compliment to a good dish n mop up sauces !

[@jamesmathew6236]

Very nice and delicious!!

I used to go to a local bakery in the middle east who made fresh baguettes every morning. They didnt get enough custom and started buying from a large bakery... i never went back again 😥 miss my fresh BLT baguettes of a morning 😥 fml

[@NoobyStylezTV]

the real question is how did you get bacon in the middle east ?

[@UKinQ8Gaming]

@@NoobyStylezTV there are places that sell it legally like bahrain and dubai.

2 little tips for your Paris trip, guys: 1- just ask some random person if there is a good bakery around where you are. That's a routine question parisians are used to. Bakeries are independent businesses, so how good it is exactly will vary. We all have a preferred bakery in our neighbourhood and are happy to share the info. Just ask someone. 2- don't ask for a baguette , ask for a "baguette tradition". It's just an upgraded baguette that is more tasteful, well worth the little premium you'll pay.
