New Banneton & Knife

I've been looking for a good Banneton, a bread proving basket, for a while, and I finally found the one that I love!! It's from Suffolk Food Hall's kitchen shop. They have different sizes and shape baskets there.

I got a medium size round one, and this basket is simply amazing! I dust it with only a small amount of rye flour when I prove the bread, and the dough comes out so perfectly!

No more 'dough stuck' accidents...;)

I also got a baker's knife, Grignette, from Andy's mum and dad at Christmas. Honestly, I was so happy when I opened the present. I love my new knife. It cuts the dough ever so cleanly.

No more 'dough tearing accidents... ;)

Strawberry yeast bread 

and

banana yeast bread...

both baked perfectly with my new basket and knife;D

Always..., good bread needs butter! ;D
