About this item

• A banneton is a woven basket used to support the dough while it rises during the proving process. It helps maintain the shape of the dough and creates a beautiful pattern on the crust of the bread. Additionally, the banneton helps to absorb excess moisture from the dough, resulting in a better crust and a lighter texture in the final baked bread. Using a banneton can help improve the appearance and texture of your bread.
• It is up to personal preference whether or not to use a liner with a proofing basket. Some people prefer to use one to make it easier to remove the dough after proofing. Using a liner can also help prevent the dough from sticking to the basket.
• Round baskets are great for round loaves like boules, while oval baskets are better suited for longer loaves like baguettes. Having both shapes can give you more versatility in your bread making process.

• Using a bread proofing rattan basket for bakery has several benefits:
• Allows for proper airflow: Rattan baskets have an open weave pattern that allows air to circulate around the dough during proofing. This helps to prevent the dough from becoming too moist and sticky, and allows it to rise evenly.
• Absorbs excess moisture: Rattan baskets have natural moisture-absorbing properties, which can help to remove excess moisture from the dough during proofing. This helps to create a better texture and crust in the final baked bread.
