This straw bread rising basket is traditionally used for baking and serving a high - quality bread. It's a natural, beautiful, eco-friendly touch to your kitchen. It will enchant you with its natural beauty and golden hue. All materials – a shell of rye straw and willow splits, are collected by hands. For making this basket, a basket maker use a special tool - basketry needle. 

 

 

It will be perfect for baking your own homemade bread but also for the table decoration. The basket is a handy object for every household – you can use it to proof your bread and then to serve the freshly baked, great-smelling, round loaf.

 

It is definitely one of a kind, handmade by Polish craftspeople. We can offer this basket to you thanks to our long-standing friendships formed during Serfenta’s basketry expeditions. By purchasing it, you support local Polish craft. 

 

Baking tip: 

Place a cotton cloth between the bread dough and the basket, just like presented in the photo, or use potato starch.

IMPORTANT! Dry the basket thoroughly if it has contact with water.
