I picked up rice flour and have switched to using this recipe for baguettes for banh mi. I do not spray with water, as we prefer our bread to be softer for sandwiches. These turned out perfect!

  1. I looked at that bread roll recipe and saved it. You know me I'm always mixing my bread grains and looking for new ones.

  2. I'm insane about bread, too! Right now I have baguettes, a tomato spice bread, and tons of bagels up in the freezer!
