I was looking for my 2nd banneton last night and asked my husband if he saw it anywhere.

Welllllll…

Looks like he stored it in the Dutch oven in the oven that I preheated this AM..

    Keep using it and tell people it’s mahogany

    Oh noes! Is it unusable now? RIP banneton

    Still looks perfectly usable, you just need to brush out any burnt flour if it had any flour residue in it.

    Looks well seasoned to me. Load a loaf and send it.

    Same thing happened to me and still use it just fine. I can remember there being an almost toasty popcorn smell before I realised I was pre heating the Dutch oven with the banneton inside 😂

    it’s really pretty, fwiw. if nothing else, you could keep it as a display piece

    Still good. I always use a cotton cloth napkin
    In my Banneton between my dough and the wood anyways

    Oh Boy, I loved these “opportunities.” When my husband would inadvertently ruin something of mine in the laundry, for instance, I’d secretly smile because I was going to get a present 🤭. So, go ahead and make a list of all the things you’ve been wanting, and make sure he sees it.

    Add a cotton liner and save it from the grave!

    It has an extra campfire smell to it. But gonna use it for the next loaf and see if it transfers that smell to the taste of the bread!

    Extra rustic!

    I’d bake it darker but that’s just me 💅

    For when you want your bread to have that smoky barbecue essence.

    New to sourdough, so please forgive my ignorance. Why would you put a banneton in the oven?

    Reminds me of when my kids hid legos inside our air fryer and I preheated it to 450. I smelled something burning but just attributed it to the air fryer being new. I opened up the basket and they were super melted. My husband said they were Salvador Dali legos lol.
