Brotform Proofing Basket, Round Loaf

A favourite in European bakeries for generations, this proofing basket is called a Brotformin Germany and a bannetonin France. Crafted of natural cane and shaped for round or rectangular loaves, it allows the dough to rise evenly into a uniform shape, while the rattan coils draw out moisture to promote a crispy crust. Spiral indentations left by the coils bake into the bread, so loaves come out with a classic artisanal finish; line the basket with cheesecloth if you prefer a smoother finish.
