  • Visible Fermentation

    We’ve all heard this before: “Let the dough rise until it is double in size.” Well, how much is that?! When I look at a lump of dough, it is sometimes hard for me to remember how big it was originally… especially when it is in a rounded bowl.

    Notice these square containers permit visualizing the level of fermentation. And you can immediately see when it is double in size… or more! If you plan on getting a couple of these, keep in mind, if let unattended, it could easily triple in volume. So get one that is big enough for your needs!

  • Dough Containers

    These convenient food containers were selected for a couple of reasons:

    • They are food safe.
    • The lids keep in the moisture but they are not air-tight.
    • They are graduated for convenient reference.
    • Translucent to visualize rising activity.
    • Square footprint for more efficient storage.

    These containers are listed among other tools used for baking in the right-hand column of this page.
