Sourdough Proofing Kit
Everything between your starter and a bakery loaf
- Oval rattan banneton with linen liner
- Bread lame with replacement blades for scoring
- Danish dough whisk and dough scraper included
- Signature spiral flour rings on every loaf
Every impressive sourdough photo you have ever seen has one thing in common: the loaf proofed in a basket like this one. The coiled rattan wicks moisture off the dough while it rises, which is what gives you the crackling crust and those spiral flour rings.
This is the full setup, not just the basket. The danish whisk mixes shaggy dough your spatula gives up on. The scraper handles sticky high-hydration dough. The lame scores the top so your loaf blooms in the oven instead of bursting at the side. The linen liner keeps softer doughs from sticking.
Flour it, drop your dough in seam side up, and let the basket do the part of the job your mixing bowl never could.
How to use it
- Dust the basket (or the linen liner) generously with rice flour.
- Place your shaped dough in seam side up and let it proof per your recipe.
- Turn the loaf out onto parchment, score it with the lame, and bake. Brush the basket clean and keep it dry.
Questions people ask
Do I need to season or prepare the basket?
Just dust it generously with flour before the first few uses. Rice flour works best because it does not absorb into the dough.
How do I clean it?
Scrape out dried dough, brush off loose flour, and let it air dry. No washing; water is the enemy of rattan.
What size loaf does it fit?
A standard home sourdough loaf from roughly 500 g of flour proofs comfortably in it.
