Proofing towel question
Hello... gathering my equipment for baking. This may seem silly but regarding proofing towels, I have several towels... namely “tea towels. Do I need flour sack towels for proofing my dough?
The tea towels....some have black printed sayings, is this a concern? Just don’t like to buy things if I don’t need to. My kitchen is full enough:)
Get flour sack towels or tea towels with images ok?

As long as they are cotton, smooth (no texture) and well-floured. I’ve used tea towels (with design/printing) and flour sack and there’s little difference in performance. I always put the print side away from the dough just in case, though I doubt the print would transfer. Happy baking!
Thank you!
