big news! big news!
Recently, there is a big news that makes all French people rejoice!
I don’t know if you still have an impression. A few years ago, it was reported that the French, stimulated by the successful application of Italian pizza, decided to let baguette also apply for the World Heritage, and they also won the support of President Macron!
However, the past few years have passed, and there has been no further progress in the application of baguettes…
At first I thought it was just a lot of thunder and rain, but I didn’t expect that the baguette was successfully applied for the World Heritage List when the news came today? !
At today’s UNESCO General Assembly, baguettes officially passed the review and were included in the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
To be precise, it is not the baguette itself that is listed as an intangible heritage, but the technique of making baguettes and the tradition behind them.
About the French people’s love for baguettes, I can’t finish talking for three days and three nights.
It is said that the French consume 10 billion baguettes every year, which is equivalent to eating 320 baguettes per minute. It can be said that there is no objection to the baguette as a symbol of French food~

The French even issued special laws for baguettes. For example, the “Bread Law” introduced in 1919 pointed out that traditional baguettes can only be made of four materials: wheat flour, water, salt and natural yeast, and cannot be frozen or stored. additive.

In order to allow everyone to eat baguettes, the French government will also subsidize the price of baguettes to ensure that everyone can eat baguettes at a price of about one euro.
Every year, local best baguette competitions are held all over France. For example, the winners in the Paris region will not only receive professionally recognized honors, but also provide dining baguettes for the Presidential Palace, stepping onto the pinnacle of life. No!
By the way, the winner of the best baguette in Paris this year is the Frédéric Comyn bakery located in the 15th arrondissement. Students who want to experience it can try it~
After talking for so long, it’s time to talk about how to eat! Let me tell you the correct/wonderful way to open the baguette:
First of all, just put the freshly baked baguette under your arm and eat it directly. Students who like to eat baguettes while walking raise your hand!
On the dining table, the baguette is usually sliced and eaten with various things, such as jam, chocolate sauce, olive oil, honey, fish roe, foie gras…
In addition to these painted things, baguettes are also perfect with all kinds of stews and soups, such as beef stew, cheese fondue, and even soaked in mutton soup as steamed buns!
The loose gluten structure allows the baguette to absorb a large amount of soup. After you are full, take a bite, and the taste is not to mention how beautiful it is~
In addition, the French also like to make sandwiches after cutting them open, and add roast pork, lettuce, ham, pickled cucumbers, cheese, bacon, onions, tomatoes, tuna, etc. in the middle. It’s a golden French sandwich.
Friends who like it can also bake the baguette in the oven. My secret recipe is to mix mashed garlic, chopped parsley, salt, Parmesan cheese and butter, then coat the sliced baguette, and finally Bake in the oven for ten minutes, and the finished product will be golden and crispy, not to mention how delicious it is!
There is also a very magical method of hollowing out baguettes, adding cheese, meat, mushrooms, etc., and then sending them into the oven. Is there any delicacy in the world…
