Enameled Cast Iron Signature Round Bread Oven, 9.5 inch, Cerise

I got the Le Creuset enameled cast iron bread oven as a gift for my husband, and he absolutely loves it!. Highly recommend it for serious bakers or anyone who appreciates quality cookware. Pros: •Excellent heat retention for perfectly baked bread •Durable enamel coating that’s easy to clean •Beautiful design that adds a touch of elegance to the kitchen •Versátiles, great for more than just bread Cons: •It’s a bit heavy, but that’s part of its charm and quality •On the pricier side, but the performance and durability make it worth it

Fantastic piece for any bread maker. The Oyster color is elegant as well. Love it. Bake bread this weekend,

Exactly what I hoped for. Bought this as a gift for my wife along with remodeling our kitchen. It looks beautiful and is of the quality you'd expect from French manufacturers of cookery. Le Crueset is absolutely worth the money, you'll pass these down to your children and grandchildren.

Nice looking set - Cooks well - just a note - it is a very heavy pot just in case you buy for a elderly person

This bread oven will last at least one lifetime. Very well made! Works very well! I’ve always wanted one of these. This is something you pass down to generations.

If you’re shopping this item, you know what it’s for and what its benefits are. Baking in a closed vessel traps steam to help give a boost to your oven spring. You can do it in your Dutch oven, so why this dedicated piece? Does it bake better? Not exactly. But it does bake a beautiful loaf. And its design with a shallow base and domed lid make handling it much easier. The major difference in this vs a Dutch oven is that you can remove the dome shaped lid easily mid cook, and allow more of your loaf to get direct heat from the oven so the crust comes out even. In that regard its design is great. The included instructions/recipe say to let your loaf proof right in the pan, covered. Which does work just fine. You can also proof normally in a basket if you like - it still works great. Some people have concerns about preheating Dutch ovens empty - I’m of the opinion that it’s fine because the whole thing is heating slowly and evenly with the oven. So I sometimes preheat this as well. Most often, I preheat the dome only, just so I’m not dealing with a 450 degree pan when I’m trying to put my loaf into it. The only negative - and it’s minor - is the rings and logo on the base. They prevent you from using the bread oven for anything else besides baking bread, so this is a true unitasker. I don’t need the bottom of my loaf to have circles and a ay le creuset on it (like the Dutch oven lids (see photo)). I’d rather have a smooth surface making it easier to slide a spatula underneath so I could use it for other things too. If you like baking bread, and find some therapeutic joy in the process this is a worthwhile purchase. If you’re more of a utility baker, there’s other options much cheaper that would work the same. Lodge makes a cast iron 5qt double dutch that has the same shallow pan as a lid, which mates to a Dutch oven to create basically the same design. its not enamel coated but it gets the job done just as well. I have one… I use the lid all the time for roasting other things in the oven, but I use this Le Creuset for baking bread because I just enjoy it more.

Great round baker for my sourdough. I have been baking sourdough for over two years and started out with a 5 quart Dutch oven and always worried about potential burns when I lowered the bread in at 475 degrees (I don’t wear mitts at this point because I lack the dexterity to get the job done). I do use my Dutch oven when I add inclusions. This bread baker is so much easier and creates a beautiful loaf.

This has made my bread making a BREEZE! Just be sure not to proof your bread in it prior to baking otherwise it will stick. Once the cast iron is heated in the oven, I dump my dough in, pop the lid on, remove after time has passed… this makes the best bread!

Products fantastic! FedEx delivery appalling! We appreciate that the seller did their best to solve the problem and finally we got the package. Thank you!!

Mycket fin bakgryta som gick hem till frun. Väldigt uppskattad present.

Excelente entrega. Producto en perfectas condiciones y al día siguiente.

Super

Um es vorweg zunehmen. Könnte ich 10 Sterne geben, würde ich 10 Sterne geben. Kein Einbrennen notwendig, da der Topf innen wie außen emailliert ist. Das Brot, wenn es nicht größer als 23cm im Durchmesser ist klebt nicht an. Es fällt einfach aus dem Topf. Super !!! Ich habe lange mit mir gerungen. Der Preis hat mich stark beschäftigt. Da der Topf aber definitiv immer sichtbar steht, war die Entscheidung recht schnell gefunden. Die Anwendung ist ziemlich simpel. Den Topf auf das unterste Backblech, nicht den Backofen Boden, stellen und bei 260°C Ober-/Unterhitze vorheizen. Vorsicht der Topf ist sehr heiss danach. Der Edelstahl Knauf ist ebenfalls entsprechend erhitzt. Den Deckel abnehmen. Das Brot in den Topf platzieren, den Teig einschneiden und den Deckel drauf. Nun wird bei 260°C für 20 min das erste mal gebacken. Nach den 20 min den Deckel abnehmen und das Wunder des Wachstums bestaunen. Den Ofen nun auf 230 °C runter drehen und weitere 25 min backen. Danach das Brot auf ein Rost heben und1h abkühlen lassen. Kein festbacken, das Brot fällt einfach so raus. Mittlerweile gibt es Dienstags und Freitags frisches Brot. Die Kruste ist so knackig, im inneren ist es fluffig. Wenn das Brot abgekühlt ist, verwenden wir den Topf als Brottopf. Das Brot bleibt über Tage frisch. Viel Zeit zum zum Alt werden, geben wir dem Brot auch nicht. Fazit: Ein für mich sehr schönes Küchenutensil. Es ist sehr wertig verarbeitet und sieht auch entsprechend aus. Die Funktion ist perfekt. Reinigen ist ein Kinderspiel.
