The hero of this picture is this piece of parchment paper, which prevents the from sticking to the form during baking. Nominally it's single-use, but it already survived four breads and may last for two more. Small steps. BTW, it's not just and . It's compostable.

@szescstopni I always re-use my parchment paper many times over. I much prefer it over greasing pans.

@MarcusMuench I have to find out those things myself – no one ever told me :) Living away from stores forces one to rethink many aspects of life.

@szescstopni Well, the embarrassing thing I had to learn was that parchment paper and wax paper are not the same thing. However, picking melted wax paper off a batch of pretzels taught me that lesson.

@MarcusMuench The only way to learn is through errors. I started baking bread just a few months ago. The worst thing that happened so far was using twice the sugar required, but I won't be surprised if some spectacular catastrophe happens.

@szescstopni One of my worst was trying to make naan. I ended up re-inventing the chew toy for dogs.

@MarcusMuench Hope it didn't overflow the dog's processor.
