The first six Scaritech references are already in our webshop: two Grignette® scoring blades, the Griffe® six-blade scoring tool, a magnetic blade holder, a large dough scraper and a wool shaping mat for sourdough and other high-hydration doughs.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Ovens, mixers and proofers get most of the attention when a bakery is equipped. The hand tools get far less, yet they touch every piece of dough that leaves the bench. That is the part of the bakery Scaritech has worked on for more than 35 years, and the part our \u003Ca href=\"/blog/bakery-equipment-essentials-guide\">bakery equipment guide\u003C/a> calls smallwares.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Who is Scaritech?\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>Scaritech has made bakery and pastry tools in France since 1989. Its best-known product came a year later. In 1990, a French ministerial circular asked bakers to stop scoring dough with a bare razor blade, and Scaritech answered with the Grignette®: a blade set in a plastic handle that is safer to hold and easier to guide.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Today the range covers bread lames, dough scrapers, shaping mats, dough tubs and proofing baskets, and many of its designs are patented. Scaritech is part of La Brigade de Buyer, the French group behind the de Buyer brand.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Part of our strategy of representing French brands in Lebanon\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>Many Lebanese bakeries, pastry shops and restaurants work with French techniques and French recipes, from the morning baguette to the croissant and the galette des rois.

It lets steam escape in the right place and decides how the loaf opens in the oven: the ear on a baguette, the cross on a sourdough boule, the pattern on a galette. Clean bread scoring needs a sharp blade, a steady angle and one confident stroke. A dull or unsteady blade drags through the dough, and the loaf opens unevenly.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>The \u003Cstrong>Grignette® yellow (GR1067S250)\u003C/strong> is the classic bread lame. A curved stainless steel blade is fixed on a yellow handle, and a cap covers the blade between uses. The curve suits the shallow, angled cut that gives a baguette its ear. When the edge stops cutting cleanly, switch to a fresh one.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>The \u003Cstrong>Grignette® green (GR2002S5)\u003C/strong> is lighter and flexible. Three flex points and a thumb lug let you hold it like a pen and follow the dough at any angle, which suits decorative scoring on sourdough loaves.
