A fresh batch of baguettes From the countryside to the city, the long bread made by hand is a familiar image in the daily life of the French people. The baguette has also been a creative inspiration for many artists and has gone into many works of art. From a foreign perspective, when it comes to France, in terms of cuisine, the baguette is probably one of the most intimate and simple symbols, next to countless types of wine, champagne or cheese. So when did baguettes in France come from? According to historian Steven Kaplan, up to now, in France, there are usually three anecdotes about the origin of baguette bread. It is said by many that the long bread was invented by the bakers of Emperor Napoleon in the early 19th century. Lighter and less bulky than the earlier round loaf, the long loaves were easily carried by soldiers. people. In another anecdote, baguettes originated in Austria and were brought to France by a Viennese baker named August Zang in 1839, and were originally sold in Paris as ovals. And finally, the baguette was invented on the Paris subway site in the 1900s, a time when workers from all over France flocked here, and there were often fights between Brittany and regional workers. Auvergne. To prevent workers from stabbing each other with knives, contractors are said to have asked bakers to make loaves of bread that are easy to break by hand rather than using a knife. However, those are just oral anecdotes. Historian Steven Kaplan asserts that the traditional baguette originated in the 20th century, stemming from a change in the dietary needs of urban people. The affluent class living in urban areas wanted to eat fresh bread many times a day, while the big, round breads weighing 1.2-2kg at that time were too big, they had to eat a few meals to finish. Moreover, people also prefer to eat the crust rather than the inside. For centuries before that, bread was made with sourdough, obtained by the natural fermentation of bacteria found in wheat. For the workers, the process of making cakes is very hard work. Steven Kaplan recounted, the baker at that time was likened to a “white miner”, working all night. Many consider it inhumane to let bakers work in such conditions, leading to a movement to find ways to reduce their hardship. By 1919, France had a law banning bakers from working at night. Therefore, the craftsmen have come up with a simpler way to make bread and shape the long, thin baguette to bake the cake faster. And so the baguette was born. According to the National Federation of French Bakery and Pastry Shops, 32,000 artisan bakeries with 180,000 employees earn about 11 billion EUR/year in revenue. However, the French Ministry of Culture said that the number of bakeries has dropped sharply in the past five decades due to competition from supermarkets with industrial, frozen bread. Many people hope that the French Ministry of Culture’s selection of baguettes to submit to UNESCO for nominations for the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity will contribute to preserving France’s artisanal bread production from the competition of the industrial production methods.

Speaking at the opening of the conference, Standing Vice Chairman of the National Assembly Tran Thanh Man affirmed that the full-time National Assembly member was the nucleus in the activities of the National Assembly. The National Assembly has an important contribution from the full-time National Assembly deputies.

Mourinho is facing growing pressure at Tottenham. After losing to Man United last weekend, Spurs are now 6th on the rankings, 6 points behind the Champions League, 3 points behind the Europa League.

Spurs can still win tickets to the European Cup if they win the League Cup. But even then, they can only attend the UEFA Europa Conference League, the newly established European 3rd class arena and are expected to go into practice next year.

That may have been Spurs’ first title since 2008 but not enough to erase a failed season for the team if they fail to attend the major European arenas next season.

Chairman Daniel Levy is expected to find a new coach to replace Mourinho. Here are six potential candidates.

1. Nuno Santo

Santo is the top candidate to replace Mourinho at Tottenham

Former coach Valencia and Porto are having an unsuccessful season when Wolves are unlucky with injuries. Currently, this team is ranked 12th on the rankings, without having to worry about relegation but also no longer have the opportunity to attend the European Cup. However, Wolves’ successes in recent years are enough to prove Santo’s capabilities. Moreover, President Levy also admires the 47-year-old coach.

In January, there were rumors that Nuno Santo asked agent Jorge Mendes, who is also Mourinho’s agent, to help him find another club. And in case Mourinho is sacked by Spurs, Nuno Santo can dock Spurs.

2. Julian Nagelsmann

Nagelsmann is currently the coach of Leipzig. He is the youngest coach to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League with this feat last season. This season, Leipzig was eliminated by Liverpool from the eighth round but is still competing fiercely with Bayern in the Bundesliga arena.

Nagelsmann is one of the top coaches in Europe. He was linked to several Premier League football teams, including Chelsea before Tuchel was appointed. The play that the 33-year-old leader offers is enough to attract Levy if the Tottenham president decides to fire Mourinho.

3. Brendan Rodgers

Rodgers is flying high with Leicester in the Premier League, despite having limited financial potential, Tottenham’s BLD is in desperate need of this. Chairman Levy has reportedly wanted to appoint Rodgers in the past when he fired Redknapp in 2012.

Former Liverpool coach is considered one of the best strategists in the Premier League. He also did good jobs at Liverpool and Celtic before. And the challenge of making Tottenham a force is enough to attract the Northern Irish strategist.

4. Ralph Hasenhuttl

Hasenhuttl is currently coach Southampton. He used to help this team fly high earlier in the season but has been in decline recently. He is said to have many similarities with Pochettino, Mourinho’s predecessor was very successful at Tottenham.

The Austrian strategist is considered by experts to be one of the most talented coaches in the Premier League. Captain Southampton has a pretty special nickname “Jurgen Klopp of the Alps”.

5. Max Allegri

Allegri won 6 Serie A championships with AC Milan and Juventus. In an interview last year, he expressed interest in wanting to work in the UK and revealed that he is working hard to learn English.

Since then, there have been rumors that Allegri will accept a job at Man United, Chelsea and many other teams. Recruiting Allegri would be a successful deal for Daniel Levy.

6. Rafael Benitez

Benitez just broke up with the Chinese team in February and is looking for a job in England. Benitez’s only problem is that his football philosophy is somewhat pragmatic, promoting discipline that goes against Levy’s attacking direction.

He has brought Champions League titles, FA Cup and European Super Cup for Liverpool, Europa League titles for Chelsea and won many major trophies with Inter Milan, Valencia and Napoli. Most recently, Benitez helped Newcastle return to the Premier League. Benitez left Chinese football team Dalian Pro in January and will be open to the opportunity to return to work in the Premier League once again.
