🔧 Bread Baking 101 – Tools I Use
Here are the exact tools I used in this video. These are simple, reliable basics that make bread baking smoother and more consistent in my kitchen.
🧢 Dough Covers (Shower Caps)
I use these disposable shower caps to cover rising dough. They stretch easily over bowls and containers, creating a perfect proofing environment.
📄 Flat Parchment Paper – Katbite Brand
I use flat sheets instead of rolls. They lay flat right out of the pack (no curling!) and fit standard half sheet pans beautifully.
🪣 Cambro-Style Dough Container with Lid
Great for bulk fermenting dough and easy to see through for rise tracking. Comes with a snap-on lid.
🌡️ Instant-Read Thermometer – ThermoPro
I use this to check the internal temp of baked bread (should be ~195–205°F). It’s fast, accurate, and folds flat for storage.
