There are tools for every level of bread baker. Bread baking requires precision and a few basic tools. A bread baker should always have a scraper for shaping the dough. This tool shapes the dough, removes sticky areas and removes excess flour. It's also handy for artistic slicing patterns.
Another important tool when baking bread is the proofing tray. Brotforms are also known as proofing baskets. They provide structure to the dough's sides while it proofs. This allows the dough's shape to remain constant throughout its rise. It also allows you to control the temperature. You can choose from a variety of sizes so that you can find the right one for your needs. It is important to store a proofing pan in a dry location. If it gets wet, it can cause the loaf to expand and lose shape. It can be lined with linen so that it is easier to clean.
A kitchen scale is an essential tool for baking bread. It can measure down to the gram and is useful in measuring flour, water and other ingredients for a recipe. It can also be used to read the temperature of the dough using an instant-read thermometer. Thermometers are particularly useful for checking the temperature of the dough. You should choose a thermometer with an easy-to read face and a tip measuring 2.5 mm for checking the dough's internal temperature.
A pastry brush, another essential tool for bread baking, is also important. A pastry brush is a wonderful tool to use for applying an egg wash on the outside of the loaf. It also makes it easier to transfer the loaf to the oven. It also can be used to spread melted butter on the outside crust of the loaf.
A dredge shaker is also useful for mixing ingredients. It can be used as an ordinary bread scraper but also to sprinkle flour onto the dough's surface. This tool is great for dusting the counter. You can also use it as a dusting brush to dust the dough when it is baking.
You can also use a bread baking tool to make shaped loaves. The best way to get the most out of your dough is by scoring it. This will control the rise of the bread during baking and give it a variety. This can be done using a kitchen shears and a straight razor. A wooden coffee stirrer is also an option.
Thermometers can also be used to determine the temperature of the dough or the liquid that is necessary for the bread. The Thermapen from ThermoWorks can be used to bake bread. It's both accurate and quick. It can also be used to test the yeast in liquid, and it has a large, easy-to-read display.
A baking stone is an additional bread-baking tool you may not think about, but it can be. This tool is particularly useful for baking baguettes as it allows you to transfer the bread from the oven to the oven. It is also useful for baking pizza, because it will allow you to move the pie crust around in oven.
