Best Bread Pans

This bread pan set is shipped with a professional bread lame – a special dough cutting tool that will add a professional touch to your loaf. It is much more convenient than an ordinary knife for precise incisions on the loaf.

The bread loaf with professional cuts is a French invention. First, such loaves were mentioned in 1834 by the French scientist Vaudrie who wrote several books on bread baking. The major purpose of these incisions was to improve the appearance of a bread loaf. Initially, such cuts were made only on the bread for rich families and at the best French restaurants.

But in reality, these incisions have a pure practical bearing. The thing is that a smooth surface of a loaf can crack while being baked. To avoid this problem, bakers make cuts on a loaf. Actually, these are intentional scotches allowing the dough to proof and crack only where needed.

To get a good-looking loaf with a mouth-watering crust you need to make incisions quickly and precisely. And there are a lot of incision techniques. Have a look and check some of the most efficient techniques in this video.
