What are Sondiko bread proofing baskets used for?

Sondiko bread proofing baskets are used to hold sourdough dough while it rises before baking. The natural rattan helps the dough maintain its shape, develop a beautiful crust, and achieve a good rise. After proofing, you invert the basket onto parchment paper to bake your loaf.

How do I clean my Sondiko rattan proofing basket?

Clean the Sondiko basket by hand washing with warm water within 2 minutes and then drying it thoroughly. You can also leave it in a warm, dry place to air dry. Avoid soaking the basket or putting it in a dishwasher, as this can damage the natural rattan.

Is the Sondiko bread proofing basket safe for food?

Yes, the Sondiko bread proofing basket is made from natural, undyed rattan that is free from dyes and chemicals, complying with EU food standards. This ensures it is safe for direct contact with your sourdough dough.

Can I use the Sondiko basket for other types of bread?

While ideal for sourdough, the Sondiko basket can be used for other types of bread dough that require proofing. Its shape and material help support the dough's structure during its final rise before baking.

How to choose a bread proofing basket?

Does the Sondiko basket come with a liner?

How to use

After your sourdough dough has undergone its primary fermentation, gently shape it into a round or oval loaf that fits the basket's dimensions. Avoid overworking the dough. — Prepare the Dough
Generously dust the Sondiko proofing basket and its liner cloth with flour (rice flour or a mix is recommended to prevent sticking). Carefully place the shaped dough seam-side up into the basket. — Dust and Place Dough
Cover the basket and let the dough proof at room temperature or in the refrigerator for its second rise, as per your sourdough recipe. The basket supports the dough's structure. — Proof the Dough
Once proofed, invert the basket onto parchment paper or directly into your preheated baking vessel. Bake your sourdough loaf according to your recipe. Clean the basket afterwards as instructed. — Bake the Bread
