  1. What brand of gluten free baguette do you recommend? I have never seen one, and I\’d LOVE to find one. Loads and loads of (sadly) bad gluten free sandwich bread, yes; but any kind of gluten-free baguette, no…
    The recipe sounds great- maybe I\’ll try it with rice, quinoa, or oats until I can find a good GF baguette.
