Hya.
I want to make my own bread proofing basket (Brotform or Banneton).
I've had a look on google but can't find any instructions or guides. I wonder does anyone have experience of basket making that could help? It would you start with a wooden mould. You then take softened reeds or canes and create the basket in what looks like one long coil. The ridges leave marks in the finished bread.
I need to know what materials to use. I don't think any adhesive is used, I think you just pin the cane into place every few inches. I also need to know what type of cane would be best to use.
Here's a link to the type of thing I'm after:
