Know before you buy
You can use the baskets with or without the liners. Using the liners prevents the dough from sticking to the cane and makes cleanup easier, while proofing directly in the cane creates the classic spiral pattern on your crust.
Avoid washing the baskets with soap and water, as this can lead to mold. Instead, shake out excess flour after each use and let them air dry completely in a well-ventilated area or sunlight before storing.
The dough whisk is designed to mix wet and sticky sourdough ingredients efficiently without overworking the gluten. Its sturdy wire loops cut through the dough better than a standard spoon or spatula.
Yes, the 9-inch round and 10-inch oval sizes are standard for most home-baked sourdough loaves, typically accommodating dough weights between 500 and 800 grams.
Lightly mist the baskets with water and dust them generously with rice flour. Rub the flour into the crevices of the cane to create a non-stick barrier that prevents your dough from adhering during the proofing process.
