Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare the basket for its first use, brush out any loose debris. When proofing, always ensure your dough is well-floured to minimize sticking. If using the liner, ensure it is seated firmly against the walls of the basket.
Care instructions are vital for longevity:
- Do not submerge the basket in water; if necessary, use a stiff brush to remove dried-on dough bits.
- If the basket gets damp, place it in a sunny, well-ventilated area to dry completely before storing.
- Wash the cloth liner in cool water and allow it to air dry thoroughly.
- Never place the basket inside an oven, as natural rattan is not heat-safe.
