This proofing basket works well for preparing medium sized loaves. I use it for when I cook bread(sourdough or a simple no knead recipe) in a dutch oven.

This Mafter Bourgeat proofing basket/banneton is perfect for proofing sourdough bread. It leaves a very nice design and the bread rises evenly. I just dust it with a little flour and the bread releases very easily.

This is a great addition to any bakery or bread bakers collection. It is very sturdy and is very useful for keeping dough together. The only downside is the pricing but it is well worth it.

Good quality proofing baskets! This is a good item to have 5 of, this allows you to have multiple loaves of bread out to rise. I love homemade bread! The baskets are durable and have stood up to many washing’s. They make lovely breads.

I used this wonderful banneton this week to make some oatmeal bread, and my goodness is it ever a joy to use! The willow is tightly woven so there's not really any gaps. My recommendation is to use a healthy amount of flour to prevent sticking, and use the banneton for your first rise, and then dump it out onto your pan and let it rise again. It cleans up easily with a pastry brush, no need to wash it, although you can. I'm already adding other sizes to cart. I really like that this company is family owned and that these are still manufactured in France.
Thank you for your review, Heather! While Matfer Bourgeat does produce many items in France, the current country of manufacture for this particular item is listed as Slovenia.
Wonderfully made willow proofing baskets that are very gorgeous. A great basket for shelving units and display pieces. Holds our penny candy perfectly and very lightweight.
