Natural materials for better baking

Frequently asked questions
How do I prepare the proving basket before use?
Dust the cotton liner with a little flour before placing the dough inside. This helps prevent the dough from sticking and makes it easier to turn the loaf out onto the baking tray.
Can I use the basket without the cotton liner?
It is recommended to use the included cotton liner, as it helps prevent the dough from sticking to the basket and retains moisture in the dough during proving.
