My new baking equipment / 新しいパン作りの道具

Do you use a baking mat for bread baking? Although I know it because my mother is using it, I myself never had one.

Quite long ago I read in a post by @apsu that he has a nice wooden work surface. I wanted to have one but I have no space to safely and cleanly store it in my kitchen. So I just continue working on our dining table. Yes, it's inconvenient ...

I think I saw someone was using a baking mat on a YouTube video and I found the scales printed on the baking mat useful. I quickly looked up how much it costs. Itwas around 10 EUR. It could be an investment so I ordered it.

So far I like it. I'll see it becomes my life long baking friend 😁

I think about serving it in cold season at a local market 😉
