Rosti Round Proofing Basket

The banneton that gives a homemade loaf its bakery rings.

A staple of European bakeries for generations, known as a Brotform in Germany and a banneton in France, this natural cane basket cradles a round loaf through its final rise so it holds an even shape. The rattan coils wick moisture from the dough for a crisp crust and press the spiral pattern into the bread; line it with cheesecloth if you prefer a smoother finish.
