Hand-crafted on the island of Sardegna by Mario and Franca, a husband and wife team of artisan weavers, this linen couche is made from untreated and unbleached flax that is grown on the island and woven on ancient looms. Also known as a baker’s proofing cloth, Jovial’s Linen Couche is the perfect way to allow your dough to rise gently and wick away just a small amount of surface moisture to create a crispy crust and help hold the loaf shape. Line your favorite colander or bowl for rounds, accordion fold for a lineup of baguettes or swaddle a ciabatta in a folded envelope of this extra-large cloth.

Care Instructions: Hand wash with mild soap, rinse and hang dry before using. Dust generously with rice flour or regular flour to prevent sticking. We do not recommend repeated washing of your couche to prevent small fibers from developing. Shake out excess flour after use and wrap tightly for storage. Hand wash gently after multiple uses.

      I love the authenticity and craftsmanship of this linen couche, doesn't stick and the baked loaves look beautiful and taste so delicious. Will be purchasing another very soon.

      Lovelier in person than expected, it has a great weight and feel. It's a higher quality than others I've purchased online. I made my first einkorn sourdough bread and this made handling the sticky dough much easier.

      Living with hashimotos and fighting insulin resistance and having to give up grain is unimaginably difficult. Your products make the transition much easier. Thank you for your great products. Your a lifesaver...

      Ordered, washed as instructed, and baked my first sourdough boule using it to line my colander the other day. Worked just as it did in the videos! My bread turned out beautiful and very tasty! Very pleased with my purchase.

      Bought this a couple of years ago to prep for my new adventure of cooking with Einkorn as well as beginning to learn how to make other sour dough recipes. Not sure it is right for me. Having trouble with the stiffness of the couche. Unable to make it flexible enough to use in proofing my dough. I did flour it well, but the dough still stuck like crazy.
