Dissolve the yeast with 1 tbsp flour and 1 tsp. of sugar in 100 ml warm water. Half of the flour and all remaining ingredients mix well. Sift the remaining flour, pour the yeast coming up. Knead a soft dough. At first the dough will be sticky, but don't overload the dough with flour, knead for a good 10 minutes. Cover and let rise for 1 hour in a warm place.

The dough came, and greaves already melted in it. Lard and cracklings I tried this recipe http://www.povarenok .ru/recipes/show/115 137/. Divide the dough into 4 parts. Each piece roll out into a rectangle approximately 20 x 40 cm Fold on the long side to the middle, folded up and sealed. Turn, a little crush, and again repeat, fold, seal.

Now roll out the harness. Spread on a baking sheet with a silicone Mat. I have the picture in parchment, that was my mistake, when strongly heated oven, the parchment began to burn. Cover with a towel and let rest for 30 minutes at +20OC, not above. Then with scissors, make slanting cuts, pulls the tail "scales" and tucking into the incision.

Preheat the oven to 230C. The pan I have is small so I baked it in 2 portions so that the baguettes do not stick together among themselves. Put the baguettes only in a well-heated oven. After 10 minutes reduce the temperature to 200C. For crisp baguettes should bake under the lid or with steam. The cover I have, so I misted the baguettes with water before and 2 times during the baking process. You can put a bowl of water on the bottom of the oven.
