Hi, I am Syd from India. Just joined the forum today. :) I have been baking since I was a kid. I love baking. In India its hard to find some ingredients for home baking except for the basic ingredients like flour, yeast, butter, etc.  So, I am always on a hunt for baking goods. I cant use complex terms so please bear with my casual writing. I have a small oven which is a microwave+convection (fan type) that doesn't bake very well sometimes and drives me crazy. I plan on getting a new oven, a bigger one, after a couple months. I wana bake french bread like Baguettes. I only bake for one person so most of the time the loaves I bake are smaller and recipes are cut into half or quarter.
