Product Information

Full details

The YnysTec Oval Sourdough Banneton Bread Proofing Basket is designed for both home hobbyists and professional bakers who want to achieve professional-grade sourdough results at home. Its primary benefit is the 100% natural rattan construction that wicks moisture away to create a superior crust and classic artisan coil patterns; however, because it is a handmade natural product, users must be prepared for slight variations in the physical dimensions and weight of each basket.

FAQs

Can I put this basket in the oven?

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

How do I clean the rattan if dough gets stuck?

Let the dough dry out completely until it becomes hard, then gently dislodge it with a stiff brush.

Does the weight vary between baskets?

Yes, because these baskets are handmade from natural materials, minor variations in weight and size are expected.

What is the benefit of the cloth liner?

The liner provides a smooth surface that is ideal for sticky, high-hydration doughs and keeps the rattan coils clean.

Is the material safe for food contact?

Yes, it is made of 100% natural rattan, which is a safe, traditional material for bread fermentation.

Troubleshooting

Dough sticking to the basket

Ensure you are using enough flour, specifically rice flour, and consider using the included cloth liner for wetter doughs.

Musty smell or mold growth

The basket was likely stored while still damp. Scrub the area with a dry brush and leave the basket in direct sunlight or a well-ventilated area for several hours.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Promotes a crisp, professional-style crust
  • Lightweight construction at only 100g
  • Includes a removable liner for versatile dough handling
  • Natural materials ensure a chemical-free proofing environment
  • Adds aesthetic, rustic charm to any kitchen setting

Cons

  • Handmade nature means dimensions may vary slightly per unit
  • Natural rattan requires careful cleaning to avoid mold
  • Not dishwasher safe
  • Requires proper seasoning with flour to prevent sticking

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before the first use, lightly mist the basket with water and dust it with flour to prepare the surface. To maintain the life of your basket, ensure it is thoroughly air-dried after every use; storing a damp basket in a cupboard can lead to mildew. If dough debris gets stuck in the rattan, allow it to dry completely and then brush it out with a stiff-bristled brush. Never soak the basket in water or place it in the dishwasher. Wash the cloth liner in cold water only, as heat may cause the fabric to shrink.
