A covered bread oven for round loaves
This Crucible Cookware round bread oven combines a shallow cast-iron base with a deep lid, giving a boule room to rise while holding moisture around the dough during the covered stage of baking. Its dark teal blue exterior and black enamel interior distinguish it from Crucible's bare, pre-seasoned cast iron. The enamel cooking surface does not need seasoning.
What size loaf does it hold?
The manufacturer lists 6.25 liters (6.6 quarts) of capacity with the lid fitted and a base diameter of 26 cm (10.24 inches). It is intended for dough made with up to 1,000 grams of flour; that is flour weight, not finished loaf weight. Check your recipe and allow space for expansion.
Which heat sources can I use?
Crucible lists compatibility with all stovetops, including induction, and an oven limit of 536°F (280°C). The lidded pan can also be used for casseroles and roasting. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for heating and handling; this is heavy cookware, so use suitable oven protection.
Enamel or bare cast iron?
Choose this model if you want cast iron's heat retention without maintaining an exposed seasoned cooking surface. Do not follow bare-cast-iron seasoning instructions on this enameled model. Let it cool before cleaning and follow the supplied care instructions.
