Round proving basket with liner Ø 26 cm 500 g

Round proving basket – perfect bread every time

This round proving basket from Matfer Bourgeat is made from white, unlacquered woven willow and comes with a 100% linen liner. With a diameter of 26 cm and a height of 90 mm, it provides ideal conditions for the dough during proving. The basket has a capacity of 5 litres and weighs just 500 grams.

Ideal for baking rustic loaves, sourdough bread and other specialities where a beautiful and consistent shape is essential for both appearance and baking quality.

Natural materials for better baking

The white, unlacquered willow weave allows air to circulate around the dough, promoting an even rise. The linen liner serves two important purposes: it prevents the dough from sticking to the basket and creates the characteristic patterned surface associated with professional baking. The combination of breathable natural materials helps to regulate moisture levels, allowing the crust to develop optimally.

Professional results in the home kitchen

With this proving basket, you have access to the same conditions as professional bakers. The round shape gives your bread a classic, consistent form, and a proper prove results in an open crumb and a crisp crust. The basket supports the dough during proving so that it retains its shape and does not spread out. This means you can work with softer, wetter doughs that would otherwise be difficult to handle.
