Elevate Your Bread-Making Experience

Our premium flour sack bread towels are the perfect companion for every home baker. Crafted with care, these versatile cotton towels offer a traditional, eco-friendly solution for covering and shaping your rising dough.

Product Features:

  • Set of 2 high-quality flour sack towels
  • 100% cotton for optimal moisture balance
  • Reusable and eco-friendly alternative to plastic wrap
  • Ideal size for most bread-making projects
  • Machine washable for easy care

Why Choose Our Bread Towels?

  • Enhanced Rising: The breathable cotton allows your dough to rise perfectly while preventing it from drying out.
  • Versatile Use: Perfect for covering rising dough, shaping loaves, or lining proofing baskets.
  • Baker's Secret: Sprinkle flour on the towel and gently rub it into the fabric for a non-stick surface - a technique favored by baking legend Julia Child.
  • Sustainable Choice: Reduce single-use plastic in your kitchen with these reusable towels.

Julia Child's Tip:

It is said Julia Child was a proponent of reusing the same towel several times, storing it in a tin between uses. This practice not only saves resources but also seasons your towel, making it even better for bread-making over time.

How to Use:

  1. Lay the towel flat on your counter.
  2. Lightly dust with flour and gently work it into the fabric.
  3. Place your dough on the prepared towel for rising or shaping.
  4. After use, store the towel in a tin for future bakes, as Julia Child recommended.

Care Instructions:

Machine wash and tumble dry low. The more you use and wash these towels, the softer and more absorbent they become!
