I was sitting in a coffee shop and enjoying my capucino. It was a cold, rainy day. Suddenly I felt a flavor which woke up my memory, the memory of my chilhood.
The smell of fresh baked bread filled my senses with sweet memories.

Step 1: - Add the backing powder in the middle of the flour and cover it up with flour.

Step 4: - Keep adding water and flour to the mix and again, make sure there aren't any pockets of flour in the mixture.
Step 5: - Add some oil (small glass - the one used for shots). Put the oil under the mixture on the sides of the bowl. (Follow the video)
Step 6: - Cover the mixture and let it grow for 1 hour.
Step 7: Uncover the mixture and mix a bit more (for a couple of minutes).
Step 8-10: - Repeat steps 6 and 7 two more times.
Step 11: - On a table create the form you need out of the dough.
Step 12a: - You can make small baguettes if you put the dough in small baking forms (like the one in the image).
Step 12b: - Put some flour in a bowl and spread it a bit. Put the bowl with this amount of flour, in the baking oven for 3-4 minutes until it heats up.
Step 13: - Put the dough inside the bowl
Step 14: - Put both the big bowl and the small ones into the oven and let it bake. It's ready when the dough looks like bread :). It has to be the normal bread color, not too burned. This should be achieved by setting the oven to 200 degrees Celsius for about 20 minutes.
