Artisan bread bakers get perfectly shaped loaves by proofing the soft dough in a linen-lined basket, or banneton. The basket provides structure for the rising dough, which not only helps form its shape but also helps it retain the beautiful bubbles that are the hallmark of artisan loaves and end goal of every baker, no matter how experienced. Whether it’s you or someone you know who has recently hopped on the sourdough train, a Mrs. Anderson’s Bread Proofing Basket is a welcome addition to any baker’s tool kit. Available in round (91⁄4″x31⁄4″) or Oval (91⁄2″x6″’x31⁄4″).
