First recipe I tried besides my standard french bread recipe - this was very easy to make and so good! And the egg wash, slashes and sesame seeds really make it look gorgeous :)

Wow! This recipe was so easy - I was skeptical, but it turned out great! I will be making this many times. My husband loved it and was very impressed that my homemade french bread turned out like the bakery!

This is the best french bread recipe! I originally found it on another site and it disappeared. I contacted the site and they told me I could find it here. Made my day!!

This bread turned out perfectly, & was very simple to make. I doubt I'll ever buy French Bread again.
