Sondiko 10 Inch Oval Bread Proofing Basket, Handmade Banneton Bread Proofing Basket Brotform with Bread Lame, Dough Scraper, Proofing Cloth Liner for Sourdough Bread, Baking

Very happy with the quality and number of items in this set for the price.

Great proofing basket for sourdough bread. This basket when thoroughly floured with rice flour is great for the final sourdough proofing. The rice flour, rubbed into the spaces between the coils of wood, prevents the dough from sticking and allows the shaped loaf of dough to come out easily for placement in a loaf pan for baking. The ridges of the coil make nice shapes in the dough too. I use the cloth cover to protect the floured basket as it isn't necessary to wash the basket between uses. In fact it is best to not get it wet. I like the oval.shaped loaf so I use this basket more than another banner on I have for round loaves.

I usually make boules and use a round banneton, but I wanted something that I could use for a relatively long (13") loaf. This one fit the bill. It is a good quality, although there were a couple of splinters in it, so it was not exactly perfect. I do like it, and it works very well. I would probably only have rated it as a "4" but I gave it a "5" because of the response I got from the seller when there was a problem with the accompanying bread lame. I messaged the seller, and they immediately corrected the situation. So I highly recommend them for their customer service, and I would definitely buy from this seller again.

Basket arrived in very good condition but the scoring lame is broken and covered with sticky gluey material. It come in a set and noy sure if i can get a replacement lame only.
