Proofing basket, wicker, oval, 28x13x7cm

Oval Reed Proofing Basket 28x13x7cm
The Oval Reed Proofing Basket 28x13x7 cm is a traditional proofing basket made of natural reed, used during the proving of shaped bread dough. This type of basket is also known as a banneton and helps the dough retain its shape whilst proving. The reed thus supports the formation of a firm dough surface. In addition, the reed leaves a characteristic pattern on the bread, giving it a rustic and artisanal look.

The oval shape is ideal for elongated loaves such as batards, country loaves or sourdough bread. This size is suitable for dough pieces weighing approximately 750 to 1000 grams.

Lightly dust the basket with flour before placing the dough inside, so that the bread comes away easily after proving. After proving, carefully tip the dough onto a baking tray or baking stone to bake the bread.
