Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What size loaf does this oval rattan proofing basket fit?
A: This oval banneton measures approximately 25 × 15 × 8.5 cm (9.84 × 5.91 × 3.35 inches) and is ideally suited for standard home-sized batard or oval sourdough loaves, typically in the 500g–800g dough range.
Q: Does the proofing basket come with a liner?
A: Yes! The basket includes a fabric cloth liner that sits inside the rattan basket. The liner prevents dough from sticking to the rattan and makes cleaning much easier — simply remove and hand wash or spot-clean as needed.
Q: How do I clean and maintain my rattan banneton?
A: After each use, remove the cloth liner and hand wash it separately. For the rattan basket itself, brush away any dried flour with a dry brush and allow it to air-dry completely before storing. Avoid submerging the rattan basket in water to preserve its shape and durability.
Q: Can I use this basket without the cloth liner?
A: Yes. Without the liner, the rattan basket imprints beautiful spiral rings on your dough — a classic hallmark of artisan sourdough bread. Just be sure to flour the basket generously to prevent sticking when using it liner-free.
