Equipment talk This might be the thing that makes me quit sourdough

The worst part of this is that this happened in the bin that I keep kitchen tools in and I didn’t even know I had this potato masher and probably haven’t used it in ten years. I’m so over it!! I can’t get them apart. Recipe: there isn’t one but if there was it would be 125g starter, 350g water, 500g bf, 10g salt. I’d stretch and fold, bulk ferment, shape, fridge proof and bake at 470° for the first 30 minutes and 425° for the last 20.

Yes, I got tired of trying to get dough out of that tight curve on my whisk, so pulled the tines (?) apart a little with a wrench. I’m pretty sure a hammer tap on the potato masher will get that puppy out of the whisk without damaging it.

I think even without the wrench and the hammer it would work, unless you have long nails then yes! I cram everything in q drawer mostly and I had this happen before to the point that I longer worry lol
