Birnbaum plastic proofing baskets are a smart, highly hygienic alternative to traditional rattan bannetons. Unlike baskets made from other materials these durable polypropylene baskets can be cleaned in your dishwasher.
There’s no need to use a cloth basket liner with these baskets as they are designed with over 80 vents that allow the dough to breathe and provide moisture exchange. The result is a dough that proofs evenly and releases from the basket without sticking! The traditional coil pattern imprints, a deep crust develops, and clean up is a breeze.
After rising your dough for the first time, knock it back and allow it to do its second rise in these food grade baskets as they support your dough, giving it a decorative imprint as it rises.
