I looked at the list and there were probably 19/20 that I would never have even thought to give our cat. I can just imagine the dirty look he would give me and he would probably go and catch himself a rat or a dove and bring it inside just to show me what he really likes.

Will try this some time.

Have lots or proofing baskets in various shapes in store but got one large triangle one here to use. I use rice flour to dust it, never sticks. Can't be washed, just a sharp tap when upside down to remove excess dustings after loaf in oven, over the sink and occasional use of a pastry brush to clear old flour.
I tip direct on top heated pizza stone with thick gloves.

Has anyone used various flours or always white?
Won't use bread improver and will use fresh yeast will try 15 g first time.
Cheers xx

I'd never heard of a "proofing basket" . . so . . found a couple of interesting sites
