The wood pulp banneton. Dense, smooth walled and quick to dry, so it needs no liner. Flour the basket and the dough releases.
Creased baskets leave defined rings on the crust. Smooth baskets leave a clean, plain finish. Round holds a boule, oval holds a batard.
Sizes are the weight of dough the basket holds, not the weight of the baked loaf.

Bamboo, wood pulp or sugarcane?
