Grab your Dutch oven, because it's about to work some artisan-style magic.
One of my favorite Julia Child anecdotes involves her epic quest to achieve a perfectly baked French baguette in a home oven for the second volume of the seminal cookbook “Mastering the Art of French Cooking.” It took a year to accomplish, but in her trademark doggedness, she, with assists from her husband and others, did it.
Thankfully, we don’t have to go to the lengths Julia did to get a good crusty bread — and not only because the bricks she and her husband, Paul, were using contained asbestos. My first loaf: Superb. My second, third, fourth and fifth loaves: Just as wonderful. One of the star attractions was the crusty crust. The oven within the oven makes all the difference. You preheat the Dutch oven for about half an hour before baking, so it’s screaming hot by the time you gently dump the dough in. It’s so hot you can actually hear the dough start cooking when it hits the surface of the pot.
Each loaf I made was a little different in shape and color, but they all tasted great. So, please, don’t sweat about getting the perfect round. We’re all about flavor and character here — and, in this case, crust. That, you’ll get every single time.
