Why Use a Rattan Proofing Basket?
Proofing baskets, also known as bannetons, are used to support and shape bread dough as it rises. The natural rattan helps wick away excess moisture, resulting in a crispier crust and a beautifully textured loaf. Whether you're an aspiring home baker or a professional, using a proofing basket can make all the difference in your bread's final appearance and flavor.
How to Use
- Generously dust the rattan basket with flour before placing your shaped dough inside.
- Allow the dough to rise as directed by your recipe.
- Once proofed, gently tip out the dough onto your baking surface for baking.
- After use, shake out any excess flour and allow the basket to air dry thoroughly.
