Thoughtful design for bread lovers, this cotton bread proving basket helps you experiment with doughs, promotes well risen loaves, and simplifies homemade bread making. Key benefits - Consistent rise and texture: The basket features an inner supporting structure that supports dough during proofing for even expansion and a uniform crumb. - Professional finish: An aesthetically woven cotton lattice provides a clean, professional look for finished loaves. - Organized and efficient: Provides versatile storage for baking tools, yeast starters, and dough, enabling easy access and streamlined workflow through all fermentation stages. - Reliable and practical: Robust cotton rope construction maintains shape when moist, with optimized air permeability for even fermentation, and hand-cleaning required (not dishwasher-safe). What makes it work - Functionality: A dedicated cotton basket with inner support keeps dough in the correct shape for consistent proofing and baking results. - Material and finish: Natural cotton basket with a decorative cotton weave delivers a professional appearance and durable use. - Performance in use: The design supports airflow for steady fermentation and helps maintain form as dough rises. - Maintenance: Clean by hand to preserve structure and finish; not designed for cleaning in a dishwasher. Size and compatibility - Designed to accommodate typical loaf doughs and starter preparations; suitable for standard proofing needs and small to medium batch experiments. - Built to work with common baking workflows, from single-loaf proofs to small-scale dough experiments, without requiring special accessories. Use scenarios - Scenario 1: Proof and shape a single loaf. Dust the basket lightly with flour, place the dough inside, and let it rise to achieve a uniform crust and crumb before baking. - Scenario 2: Small-batch baking and experimentation. Use the basket to hold and organize multiple doughs, yeast starters, and basic tools in one convenient place, streamlining your bread projects. - Scenario 3: Kitchen organization and maintenance. After use, store dough pieces, tools, and starters together for quick access, then hand wash and air dry to preserve the basket’s shape and finish. Notes - Cleaning: Hand wash recommended; avoid dishwasher cleaning to maintain shape and weave integrity.
