When your sourdough has proofed, you will need to score your dough before baking. Scoring will release tension created through the proofing process. In doing so, the scores allow the bread to further expand on baking.
The perfect tool for this step is a bread lame, which is a hand-held tool with a razor-sharp blade at the end. Some sourdough bakers use bare razor blades. However, if you are new to bread baking or just want to avoid the risk of unwanted cuts, like me, then this tool is perfect for you! It also comes with multiple blades and a leather pouch for storing the blade safely.
Other types of lames and grignettes out there exist, where some I find can cause drag marks, if not held at the correct angle. This is one of my favourite designs as it exposes both sides of the blade to avoid drag marks. It is also great for deeper cuts.
I would recommend this to someone who is just starting out on their sourdough baking journey or if you are on a budget.
