Bannetons / cane proving baskets are traditionally used to give the bread its shape while proving and are recommended for use instead of tins. These often have an anti-stick treated surface that contains toxic materials that may be leeching into your bread.
Simply sprinkle some flour into the banneton and then place the dough inside. Cover with a cloth and let the dough prove. Then remove the dough from the banneton by turning it over on a tray. Bake the dough and enjoy delicious, non-toxic bread. It is that simple.
The baskets are made of natural, untreated rattan cane and are sufficient for approximately 750g to 2kg dough depending on the size.
Available in a long oval (30 x 15 x 9 cm / 35 x 14.5 x 8cm / 38 x 14.5 x 8.5cm) or round shape (Ø 22cm).
