Why Cover Dough?
Proofing is the stage during which the yeast allows the dough to rise. Covering the dough at this stage is important because it:
Prevents the surface of the dough from drying out
Prevents a hard skin from forming
Helps retain moisture for a softer crust
Allows the dough to rise evenly
Contributes to a lighter, softer loaf
Reusable & environmentally friendly
Our cover is made of breathable, reusable fabric — an eco-friendly choice that lasts for years.
צוֹפִיָּה הֲלִיכוֹת בֵּיתָהּ וְלֶחֶם עַצְלוּת לֹא תֹאכֵל
“She watches over the ways of her household, and does not eat the bread of idleness.”
Mishlei 31:27
