at Sur La Table. Only went for one thing and it's a good thing that I don't have money to burn because this is my favorite toy store. Jean, I saw the AC tagine, it's absolutely gorgeous! Also saw the one by Le Creuset, half the price and quite nice also.
They had a relatively inexpensive clay tagine priced at $20 that the sales person showed me. They tried to tell me that this is what they actually use in Africa or wherever. Don't know how true that is or how well it would hold up, but it's something to consider. They also had some other very interesting clay pieces.
So, I came home with a dual-sided french bread pan, perforated and non-stick. I had 18 hour bread sitting on a bread board and covered for the 2 hour rise. I had divided the dough in half before I left, dusted it with flour and folded it over a few times.
After washing and thoroughly drying the new bread pan, I just rolled each piece of dough off the board and onto each side of the pan and let it sit while I preheated the oven with my stone in it. Then I just set the pan on top of the stone and baked it. So easy and probably the best bread yet.
