Overview
Oval Bread Basket 25 x 15 x 8 cm with Fabric Lining Rattan Proofing Basket for Sourdough Beige For Medium Sized Loaves

The oval basket measuring 25 x 15 x 8 cm is a practical helper for anyone who bakes bread at home using sourdough or yeast. The basket is woven from natural rattan and is suitable for medium-sized elongated loaves. The dough is placed in the basket after shaping and left to proof. The basket supports the sides of the dough, preventing it from spreading out during proofing. Once turned out onto a baking tray or into a pot, the loaf retains a nice dome shape.

The basket can be used in two ways. With the fabric lining in place, the dough is easily turned out and the surface of the bread remains smooth, only lightly dusted with flour. Without the lining, the characteristic spiral pattern from the rattan strips is imprinted on the dough, creating distinct flour stripes on the crust after baking. The lining has an elastic edge, ensuring it stays securely in place on the rim of the basket.

Using the basket is simple. Place the shaped dough into the floured basket seam side up and cover it with a cloth. Allow it to proof at room temperature, or store it in the fridge overnight, where it will mature more slowly and develop a more pronounced flavour. Before baking, carefully turn the basket over above the baking tray or cast iron pot, score the dough, and place it in the preheated oven. Rattan is a lightweight material, making the basket easy to handle when turning out the dough.

Before first use, lightly dampen the basket and thoroughly dust it with flour, ideally rice or rye flour, to prevent the dough from sticking. After use, shake out any remaining flour and allow the basket to air dry freely. Do not wash the basket in a dishwasher or submerge it in water. The fabric lining can simply be washed and left to dry. Store the basket in a dry and airy place to ensure the rattan dries well between bakes and remains clean. With regular baking, a thin layer of flour will gradually form on the surface of the basket, helping to prevent the dough from sticking.

The rattan basket 25 x 15 x 8 cm is a simple tool that gives homemade bread a nice shape and appearance. It is suitable for loaves made from both sourdough and yeast dough. The basket made from natural material is lightweight and easy to work with when placing the dough and turning it out. The fabric lining allows for baking bread with a smooth surface as well as a spiral pattern. The basket is suitable for both novice and experienced bakers. With a length of 25 cm, it accommodates a medium-sized elongated loaf.
