Freshly risen French bread rolls need to be cut open slightly to prevent them from bursting when they’re baked. In this video, cooking teacher, author, and TV host Lauren Groveman demonstrates her technique for producing attractive designs while ensuring proper steam release.
Lauren's article, "Crusty French Bread Rolls," in the December 2001/January 2002 issue of Fine Cooking (#48), gives the complete recipe and instructions for making these crisp and light bread treats.
Lauren shapes the rolls into rounds and ovals. Watch how she does it by clicking here.
