Sourdough loaf

 Here is the first loaf I did. 

I read that if my proofing basket is new that I should spray it with water before flouring it. I did that, but then when it was time to take the dough out, it stuck to the fabric. So I rinsed it with water and let it dry. Then I put lots of flour in it for my second loaf. That worked so much better!

Also, when I cooked it, the parchment paper stuck and cooked to the dough. So for my second loaf I sprayed the parchment with some cooking spray and that worked great!

Here is the proofing basket. You can see the dough stuck to it.

Here is a picture of the inside.
