Round Bread Basket 18 x 9 cm with Fabric Cover Deep Rattan Proofing Basket Beige For Smaller Loaves

The round basket measuring 18 x 9 cm is a practical aid for anyone who bakes sourdough or yeast bread at home. The basket is woven from natural rattan and is suitable for smaller, but taller round loaves. The dough is placed into the basket after shaping and left to prove in it. The round shape supports the dough from all sides, preventing it from spreading out during proofing. After being turned out, the loaf retains a nicely rounded and regular shape.

The basket can be used in two ways. With the fabric cover on, the dough easily turns out and the surface of the bread remains smooth, just lightly dusted with flour. Without the cover, the dough will imprint the characteristic spiral pattern from the concentric rattan circles, which will create distinct flour stripes on the crust after baking. The cover has an elastic edge, ensuring it stays securely on the rim of the basket.

The deeper walls of the basket help the dough rise more in height, ensuring that the smaller loaf will be nicely domed. Place the shaped dough into the floured basket seam side up and cover it with a cloth. Allow it to prove 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 a 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.

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 flour residue and allow the basket to dry freely in the air. Do not wash the basket in a dishwasher or submerge it in water. The fabric cover can simply be washed and left to dry. Store the basket in a dry and airy place, allowing the rattan to dry well between bakes and remain 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 round basket 18 x 9 cm is a practical tool for home baking of smaller round loaves. It is suitable for both sourdough and yeast dough. The basket made from natural material is lightweight and easy to handle when placing the dough and turning it out. The fabric cover allows for baking bread with a smooth surface as well as with a spiral pattern. Thanks to the height of 9 cm, the dough holds together nicely and the loaf remains tall after baking.
