7 Inch Round Banneton Bread Proofing Basket 2 pcs Natural Rattan Cane Brotform Handmade& Linen Liner Cloth

Very well made, sturdy and just the right size for making my Semolina loaves!

Perfect size for small size sourdough bread loaf.

They look deceivingly small, but work great for making bread fir two people. I put sourdough balls in about 200gm weight and let it puff up and rise up over the top. Chill to ferment, bake the next day or just to toughen up so you can score it. I sprinkle my bowls with rice flour, put in dough, pull sides back and toss in more rice flour around. Cover with the cloth covers. Rise, refrigerate, bake. The covers are thick and strong adored but I used hot sink water. Dish soap. Soaked, rinsed and hung dry on my draining rack. Ready to use. I always run hot water sprayed in bottom Of new bowls for sanitation. Shake and air dry. After each use I tap out the rice flour residue, and of needed use a clean toothbrush (just for baking) and scrub dry. If water is needed use it. The covers can go in baskets or over them it's your choice but always flour with rice flour to avoid sticking and cover lightly to prevent drying out. If you live in dry areas, I'd mist the top od dough or use wet, rung out dish dowels over the bowls while they rise. Good luck baking!

They work great for my sourdough baguettes. These are a bit long but I knew that when I bought them.

The inside bottom of the Banneton barely measures 2 3/4 inches. The other oval Bannetons I have measure 3 3/4 at the bottom. It serves the purpose of 500g or smaller. it is just smaller than expected.

As a baker who has delved into the realm of artisan bread will tell you, that wonderful "big hole" texture requires a VERY wet dough. But wet doughs will not hold their shape, tending to puddle into would-be ciabatta. It is essential, therefore, in the quest for artisan bread, that the dough be supported at all times. Hence, these baskets. I've delayed reviewing these until I had used them a while. I have now used them weekly for close to 2 years. So I can say with assurance they are durable. They are right-sized. They are lightweight, easy to handle and will stack in your cupboard. The linen liner is a dramatic touch, but useless: you'll want to line the baskets with parchment, so you can lift out the proofed loaves. How else could you? And placing dough directly onto the linen would stick instantly, anyway! You'd spend your life laundering the liners. If you aspire to artisan bread, you will need some sort of bread proofing basket. These are a fine choice.

Looking for a way for my daughter in law to shape her sour dough baguette.

Love these proofing baskets. Sorry Sams. I will now be baking not purchasing. Quality definitely there.

Muy versátiles

Ekşi maya ekmek yapımı için aldım. Gayet yararlı ve kaliteli ürün.

Bra korgar att jäsa bröd i. Supernöjd.

Good value proofing basket, 2 oval prices with 2 elasticated, washable, lining cloths. There are some slight frayed splinters at the bottom of the basket, but you can pick them away, or just leave them, after a generous dusting of flour (i used 50/50 rice flour and strong white) , they won't touch your dough or anything like that. Proofing them in the baskets doesn't get that nice lined pattern, at best you can get a bit of the cloth imprint on areas not as well floured. And if you want to let your dough ferment in just the basket alone, I'd recommend wetting it, dusting it with flour, and letting it dry a day before you start, as flour wasn't sticking well to the sides of basket the first time I tried dusting it. I've now baked around 6 loaves in these baskets and really love them, great starting off point for a low price
