FAQs

Can I put this basket in the oven?

No, this banneton is for proofing only and should not be placed inside an oven.

How do I clean the rattan basket?

Use a dry bristle brush to remove dried flour. Do not submerge the basket in water.

Why is the size slightly different from the description?

As these baskets are handmade from natural rattan, slight variations in dimensions and weight are normal and reflect the artisanal nature of the product.

Do I have to use the cloth liner?

The liner is optional. Use it if you prefer a smooth crust or if your dough is very sticky, but leave it out if you want the classic spiral imprint.

What kind of flour works best?

Rice flour is highly recommended as it does not contain gluten and provides a superior non-stick barrier compared to wheat flour.

Troubleshooting

Dough is sticking to the rattan coils

Ensure you are using enough flour, specifically rice flour, and that the basket was properly seasoned before use.

Basket has developed a musty smell or mold

The basket was not fully dried before storage. Brush off any surface mold, place it in direct sunlight to dry completely, and ensure better ventilation in the future.

Dough is not rising into the basket shape

Ensure your dough has sufficient surface tension during the shaping process before placing it in the basket.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before using your new banneton for the first time, lightly mist the basket with water and dust it thoroughly with flour. Shake out the excess to ensure the flour has coated the gaps between the rattan coils.

Care Instructions:

After Use: Tap the basket against a firm surface to remove excess flour. If dough sticks, use a stiff brush to gently remove residues.
Drying: Air dry the basket completely in a well-ventilated area before storing. Do not store in a plastic bag or a damp cupboard to prevent mold.
Liner Maintenance: The included cloth liner can be hand-washed with cool water and air-dried; do not use heavy detergents that may leave scents in your bread.
