Review on 🍞 Lekue 0200600M10M017 Silicone Brown Bread Maker: A Must-Have Kitchen Gadget by Auden Paz

I am learning to bake sourdough bread with natural yeast sourdough. It's quite expensive to buy the lodge or ceramic baking pan needed to get the crispy crust that sourdough is famous for, and I wasn't sure I could even keep my yeast alive, let alone could bake a loaf of bread with it. I bought two Lekue bread makers. They worked well and saved me a lot of money. After some experimentation I managed to bake a delicious and crunchy sourdough bread. I'm grateful for the low price when experimenting with this new way of baking bread and really see no reason to buy more expensive bakers. Sourdough Tips: Amount of water to use in natural yeast sourdough recipe. I've found that the wetter my batter, the crispier and thicker the crust will be in the Lekue bake. Also, I like to proof dough for 24 hours and always keep a damp towel or plastic wrap over closed ovens to keep the exposed edges from hardening during proofing. As far as crust browning goes, the quality of the loaf is the same whether the bread is browned or left all white. So all I needed for my bread was a brown crust to make it nice which is what I want when I spread my bread. It was hard to figure out how to brown the bread because whether I baked with the Leku open or closed, the bread stayed completely white. I've learned to use just enough batter to rise on top of the baker, because wherever the batter touches the baker, it turns a nice brown color. My investment in sourdough bread was nominal because of this baker. Easy to use, easy to store and very easy to clean.
