Know before you buy
This 9-inch round basket is designed to hold a dough weight of approximately 1.5 to 2 pounds, which is standard for a medium-sized sourdough boule.
Using the liner is recommended if you want a smooth crust finish or if you are working with a high-hydration dough that might stick to the rattan. If you prefer the traditional flour-dusted spiral pattern on your bread, you can proof directly in the basket after seasoning it with flour.
After use, simply shake out any excess flour and let the basket air dry completely in a well-ventilated area. Avoid washing it with water or soap, as moisture can cause mold; if dough gets stuck, let it dry and use the included brush to gently scrub it away.
Yes, the basket is crafted from high-quality, grade-A Indonesian rattan that has been sanded to a smooth finish. This ensures your dough won't snag or pick up wood fibers during the proofing process.
The dough whisk is designed to mix sourdough starter and flour efficiently without overworking the gluten. Its sturdy wire loop design cuts through thick, sticky dough much better than a standard spoon or spatula.
