FAQs

Can I put this basket in the oven?

No, this basket is for proofing only. Placing it in the oven will damage the natural rattan material.

What is the best type of flour for dusting?

Rice flour is highly recommended as it is gluten-free and does not absorb moisture, making it less likely to cause sticking.

How do I clean the basket itself?

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

What size loaf does this basket accommodate?

It is designed for standard round boules, typically accommodating 500g to 800g of dough.

Can I use the basket without the liner?

You can, but the liner is recommended for easier release and to achieve a smooth finish on the bread surface.

Troubleshooting

Dough sticking to the liner

Ensure the liner is adequately dusted with flour before inserting the dough.

Basket feels damp or develops a musty smell

The basket was not fully dry before storage. Clean with a soft brush and leave in direct sunlight or a warm, ventilated area to dry completely.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sustainable and eco-friendly natural materials
  • Removable liner simplifies maintenance and cleanup
  • Provides traditional rustic texture to bread crusts
  • Lightweight and easy to store
  • Sturdy handwoven construction ensures long-term durability

Cons

  • Not oven-safe and cannot be used for baking
  • Requires proper cleaning and drying to prevent mold
  • Hand-wash only due to delicate natural materials

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up the basket is simple: place the provided liner inside the basket, ensuring it is flush against the rattan walls. Before each use, dust the liner with rice flour or all-purpose flour to create a non-stick barrier. After baking, remove the liner and brush away any excess flour from the basket. Allow the rattan basket to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area to prevent moisture buildup or mold. The fabric liner can be hand-washed with mild soap and cold water as needed. Always store the basket in a cool, dry place when not in use.
