When I was growing up in the US there was an Italian bakery around the corner, and what they sold as baguettes were very different from what I typically get here if I buy a baguette. We just called it an "Italian baguette" but I'm not sure that's what it actually was.
This bread was a long baguette-shaped loaf, but it was not really not crusty or "sharp" at all on the outside – there was a thin, smooth golden crust that was still relatively soft, and then fluffy white bread inside. The inner white bread was soft and on the denser side without a lot of air bubbles.
Does anyone know where I could get something like this in Toronto?
This instagram post is an example of how it looked:
