Why Choose Our Banneton Proofing Basket?

Whether you're shaping sourdough, rye, or classic European country bread, our oval banneton ensures your dough rises perfectly while maintaining its structure. The breathable rattan allows for even fermentation, while the linen liner prevents sticking and simplifies cleanup. Achieve bakery-quality loaves with ease and add a touch of rustic charm to your kitchen.

Instructions for Use:

1. Prepare the Banneton:
   • Lightly flour the linen liner or the banneton itself to prevent dough from sticking.
2. Place the Dough:
   • Gently place your kneaded dough into the prepared banneton, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
3. Proofing:
   • Allow the dough to rise in a warm, draft-free environment until it has doubled in size (time may vary based on recipe and environmental factors).
4. Transfer to Baking Sheet:
   • Carefully invert the banneton to release the dough onto a pre-floured baking sheet or directly into the oven.
5. Bake:
   • Proceed with baking according to your recipe’s instructions.
6. Post-Baking:
   • Let the bread cool on a wire rack before slicing to maintain its structure and flavor.

Tips for Best Results:

• For optimal rise and crust, allow the dough to rise in a greased bowl before transferring it to the banneton.
• Maintain consistent humidity and temperature during proofing for uniform fermentation.

Care Instructions:

• Cleaning:
  • Remove the linen liner and hand wash it with cold water. Allow it to air dry completely before reuse.
  • Wipe the rattan banneton with a damp cloth to remove any residual flour or dough. Do not soak or machine wash to preserve the integrity of the rattan.
• Storage:
  • Store in a dry, well-ventilated area to prevent mold growth. Ensure the banneton is completely dry before storing.
