Banneton for filled loaf
Hi there
I'm a keen baker who has been making simple, round sourdough loaves for about a year.
I recently got given one of these bannetons as a gift: https://www.infusions4chefs.co.uk/banneton-bread-proving-basket-filled-loaf/ [1]
I haven't tried it yet because I'm unsure of how to shape the dough to get it into the basket. Has anyone got any recommendations? I can't find any tutorials online. I normally shape my dough into a tight ball and then place it into a standard round banneton. I just don't know how to do shape it into an 'O' shape for this one...
Thanks!
