As we are out of bread, I made baguettes. Because, well, it is Quebec.
And, for some reason, something came over me and I thought up to mix in 25 grams of maple syrup to the dough. Because, well, it is Quebec.
It made the crust much deeper brown.
But it didn't taste noticeably sweeter nor maple-y.

But, OMG, did it tremendously improve it. With a shmear of Camembert it is total heaven.
Almost made me not mind that this was day 7 of riding the Seven. On the trainer. Because, well, it is Quebec Covid Quarantine.
It is only 5 hours since it came out of the oven, and I rode for 2 hours and my wife rode for 1 hour and somehow we only have one baguette left.
Think I will bring some maple syrup to NYC to throw into all manner of breads.
