How does one go from "en couche" to "out of couche"?
I finally have gotten around to trying my hand at final fermenting en couche & certainly can appreciate the added structure, but I am having a difficult time getting the baguettes out of the cloth & onto the peel. I tried using parchment during the final proof, but it tends to stick to the sides of the loaf. My last batch rose well, but unloading was frustrating. Any tips?
