The Banneton oval 500g is a natural wicker proofing basket designed to support sourdough and other artisanal breads during their final rise. This oval-shaped tool helps the dough maintain its structure and develop a traditional floured crust, while the included linen cover prevents the surface from drying out. Its 500g capacity makes it a practical choice for smaller loaves, providing a breathable environment that is essential for achieving a professional bakery finish at home.
