What Makes Batard Different?

Batard bread is shaped like a football and stands out from other types of French bread. It lands somewhere between a baguette and a boule, while still using the classic ingredients. It has an oval shape, but there can be some liberties taken when making it. Such as making it more elongated at the end or making the end rounder. 

Is Batard Bread an Artisan Bread?

Yes, batard bread is an artisan bread. Artisan refers to breads that have a long fermentation and proof time. Batard bread has a long fermentation, but a normal proof. Artisan bread also encompasses bread kneaded by hand, which batard bread requires. Of course, some may use a mixer to knead the dough. Water, salt, flour and yeast are the only ingredients typically used for this bread.
