I have two of these ceramic cloches, these are what make my bread stand out. They allow the dough plenty of humidity as they rise and the result is the most amazing texture and flavor. I recommend these as an absolute must have.

I prefer to use unbleached parchment, it helps the dough not to stick to the bottom and also aids in transfering the dough.

These look very professional for putting your loaves in for a farmers market. Make sure your loaf is COMPLETELY cool first so it doesn't trap in any moisture. 🍞
