Fougasse makes for a stunning sight on any dinner table, but it’s equally wonderful as an appetizer and surrounded by charcuterie. Food52's Resident Bread Baker, Maurizio Leo (@The Perfect Loaf ) is here show you how to make one. The shape is traditionally meant to mimic a broad leaf or ladder with rungs, but it’s also a place for your creativity to run wild. Experiment with increasing or decreasing the number of cuts to make any imaginative design; think geometric shapes, elaborate leaves, or even mimic your favorite houseplant. This Fougasse is crunchy, but is still wonderfully contrasted by a soft, chewy interior.
