What are some things I can make with a baguette?(long skinny crusty bread)?

Question

I have a baguette and two small loaves of other crusty breads. What can I make with them? I work in a bakery but always wonder what people make w/these breads or how they eat them.

Answer 1

Bruschetta... Italian, slice in 1/2 in. rounds, place on baking sheet, drizzle with oil, bake a short time. Remove from oven, turn over and top slices with finely chopped tomato, basil, salt & Pepper and more olive oil. Grated cheese is optional. Serve.

Answer 2

You can cut slices and brush them with olive oil. Then you put a little of most any kind of cheese on the slices and run them under the broiler until the cheese is melty/toasty. Then you put little tomatoes or slices of tomatoes on top! OR you can add some basil leaves to it for added zip. You can brush them with olive oil and toast them, and then dip them in hot chocolate. YUM! Cut the loaf in half lengthwise. Scoop out the doughy part of the bread. Brush oil on the bread inside. Fill up the hollow with anything you want - ham, cheese, veggies, etc. Put the top on the sandwich and smash it real good so it is flat, kind of. Good sandwich!

Answer 3

Slice your baguette into 1/4 inch slices and top with 1 slice of gorgonzola cheese. Drizzle honey on top of that and bake until cheese is slightly melted. Yum!

Answer 4

The most common thing for me is making garlic bread, and use it as a side for soups, also i use it as a kind of sub sandwich, also i just cut in half lenght side ans spread refried beans and melted cheese and make what we call molletes (mo- ye-ttes)

Answer 5

Good for making croutons.... or use sliced bagguette bread to make mini pizzas for appitizers. Good served with chili or soups. Even better, use sliced bagguette bread and serve with a cheese fondu.

Answer 6

You can fry some mushrooms with onion and then put it on top of it ( cut it in a half first) then cover it with cheese and put it in the oven untill the cheese is melted. Then put ketchup on top of it....its kind of pizza taste .....but not exactly...and its reeaaaaallly tasty

Answer 7

i like to make a salad with cucumbers, feta cheese, and a couple different colored peppers, and put it on top of baguette that has some tahini spread on it. it's yummy!

Answer 8

I usually make a dipping sauce with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, pesto, and Parmesan cheese. or eat with a cheese plate

Answer 9

My kids go crazy when I make mini French Toast....we do all sorts of different styles....sweet with Cinnamon....spicy with grated cheese...the imagination is your limit.
