Do I need to flour the basket?

Yes. Dust the rattan generously with flour, rice flour works best, before the dough goes in. That keeps the dough from sticking and helps the spiral release cleanly.

No. The set is the two rattan baskets only. Cloth liners are sold separately if you want a smoother surface.

What size loaves fit?

The baskets are 10 inches round, which suits standard boules and batards made with typical home recipes. Very large or very small loaves will not fit as well.

How do I clean and store them?

Shake out dry flour and brush the basket. Do not soak it. Let it dry fully and store it in a dry place, since damp rattan can mold.

Is rattan better than a plastic or silicone basket?

Rattan absorbs moisture from the dough surface, which helps the crust. Plastic and silicone are easier to clean but do not wick moisture the same way.

Our take on the Swayvoo Banneton Bread Proofing Basket Set of 2

The Swayvoo Banneton set is two 10-inch round proofing baskets woven from natural rattan, used to hold shaped dough while it rises so it keeps a firm skin and a coiled pattern. Rattan wicks moisture from the dough surface, which helps the crust crisp in the oven. The 10-inch round size suits standard boules and batards for a two-loaf bake. Buyers rate it 4.7 out of 5 across 19 ratings, with praise for the handmade weave and complaints centered on finishing and the liner.
