Ron, Thanks. I knew you would have the answer. I need these bags...
when I mail. I do like Amazon. I will order. And I am going to order
Linen Bread Bags from Amazon for my home use. Thanks again, Aria

I do make sure that the bread is completely cool before putting them into the bag. That helps with condensation

YES. I was also looking for a paper bag for 11 x 6 Bread...for Gifts
I do NOT like plastic...I think it makes the Bread Soft Crust. Thanks again, Aria

Also If I freeze them open said bag to thaw. Be ready to wipe any condensation out
or you will have wet bags ... I did at those bags to my watch list on Amazon, I have the loaves that don't fit also

 

[bruceha2000]

Might want to take the entire loaf out of the bag for thawing?

I got my sourdough starter out of the fridge and fed it. I guess it was just napping because it grew 3X in 2 hours out on the mantel behind the woodstove. I looked at the Rustic Sourdough bread recipe (KA) and figured I was all set .... until I got to the part about the bread cloche or dutch oven. I do not have such a thing, does it HAVE to be baked in a "vessel"?

No, it would not need to be baked in a vessel. It would be good to mist the inside of the oven water to help form a good crunchy crust.

 

[pennyJo1960]

Or not if like us we prefer a softer crust make in bread pans I even butter it as it comes out to keep it soft

Sometimes I don't want to dirty up the dutch oven so I put a piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet and sprinkle it with a bit of cornmeal to keep the bread dough from sticking. The clean up is super easy.

Did you bake your bread Bruce? Let us know how it turned out!
