Frieling Brotform 1-Lb Bread Proofing Basket

Let your home-baked breads rise in a Brotform and harness the wisdom of centuries past. The Frieling Brotform 1-lb Proofing Basket will help yield a better rise, a crunchy ribbed crust, and superior texture. Made of natural cane, it is also great for use as a serving basket! A proofing basket lends support and shape to the dough during proofing or rising. Baskets, also know as "bannetons", made from cane, leave behind a beautiful spiral shape as a print on the crust, a popular characteristic of rustic, hand-made loaves. Cane baskets also absorb a small amount of moisture during proofing so that the outside of the dough is less sticky. This thin, slightly drier layer of dough ensures that you can also cut the dough a bit easier ("scoring') and that the bread can open nicely during baking.
