Overview
Oval Bread Basket 28 x 15 x 8 cm with Fabric Lining Rattan Proofing Basket for Sourdough Beige For Longer Loaves

The oval-shaped basket with dimensions 28 x 15 x 8 cm is designed for proofing bread dough before baking. It is made from natural rattan twisted into a regular spiral and is intended for longer elongated loaves. The shaped dough is placed into the basket and left to rise undisturbed. The sturdy walls of the basket hold the dough together, ensuring it retains its elongated shape. The baked bread then resembles that from an artisan bakery.

You can use the basket with or without the lining. When you place the fabric lining on the basket, the dough easily separates from the walls, resulting in a smoother surface for the bread. If you skip the lining and simply dust the basket with flour, it will create rattan stripes on the crust, giving it a typical spiral pattern. The lining is finished with an elastic edge that keeps it in place on the rim of the basket.

The process is the same as in an artisan bakery. After shaping the dough, place it in the basket seam side up, cover it, and let it rise in the kitchen or slowly in the fridge overnight. Cold dough is also easier to score. Once the dough is ready, turn the basket over onto baking paper, a tray, or a cast iron pot, score the loaf, and bake. The lightweight rattan basket is easy to hold when flipping it over.

  • Basket Material – natural rattan

Before proofing, dust the basket well with flour, preferably rice or rye flour, to prevent the dough from sticking to the walls. After use, shake out the basket, remove any flour residue with a brush, and let the basket air dry. Do not place it in the dishwasher or submerge it in water. The lining can be washed and reapplied once dry. Store the basket in a dry place with air circulating around it to allow the rattan to dry properly. Frequent use will result in a fine layer of flour settling in the crevices between the stripes, making it even easier for the dough to release from the walls. Never store a damp basket in a closed cupboard.

The oval basket 28 x 15 x 8 cm will help you bake bread at home with a regular shape and artisan appearance. It is suitable for sourdough bread, yeast bread, and elongated pastries. The rattan basket with a regular spiral will also give the loaf a characteristic pattern, reminiscent of those from artisan bakeries. With or without the lining, it offers two different crust appearances. It is suitable for both beginners and experienced bakers. The length of 28 cm is ideal for longer elongated loaves.
