Quick proofing box from available materials
I've moved from the couche sitting on the peel on top of a 2 x 8 over the bathtub with hot water, to the couche on a serving tray inside a large plactic bag. After visiting a bakery and seeing their stand of trays covered in a zippered plastic bag I've been thinking. I saved some zippered plastic bags from the department store when I bought some sheets. One of them is almost the exact size of my baking stone. No sense proofing more than I can bake.
Materials:
1 14" x 17" piece of scrap plywood -small hole drilled in each corner
1 zippered plastic bag that a sheet set came in
2 coat hangers, trimmed and rebent
1 small piece of duck tape
open proofing box
closed proofing box
