Sassafras Superstone Bread Dome

Sassafras Superstone Bread Dome : Superstone bread dome is a baker's dream dish. This covered bread baker replicates traditional breadmaking in an adobe oven, producing superior-tasting, golden-crusted bread with crackly crust. Durable, thick stoneware casserole distributes heat evenly, ensuring center and edges of bread bake uniformly. The dome lid circulates heat, and vent hole releases just the right amount of steam to retain interior moistness and flavor. Deep circular shape of this covered bread baker allows even rising of dough to create a lofty, artisanal masterpiece. Ideal environment to bake "no knead" bread. This round baker with glazed bottom interior and unglazed lid is the perfect baking dish to slow-roast beef tenderloin, pork shoulder or herbed chicken. Natural, heat-retentive qualities of stoneware reduce baking time, while producing moist, succulent entrees. Smooth bottom ensures easy release. Also ideal to bake seasoned dressing or vegetables and retain heat on the table for serving. Side handles allow balanced control lifting from oven onto cooling rack or table. Works best in conventional and convection ovens. Microwave-safe. Oven-safe to 500 F. Hand wash.

I have used this Bread Dome several times now, to bake both no-knead and sourdough bread, and it does a marvelous job. It's a lot easier to use than a baking stone and a lot less messy (no corn meal all over the oven). One can also let the bread do its last rise right in the Dome's bowl, put it in the oven, and bake it with no muss, fuss, or bother. I like it.

This bread dome is great! It gives a nice crunchy crust with a wonderfully soft inside. I like the fact that this bread dome has handles to hold the bottom, and the top has a knob on it to grasp. The inside of the bread dome is glazed, preventing sticking to the bottom. Another version of this does not have either, and I chose Chef's to purchase. Thank you Chef's for providing superior products.

I have not used it yet, but am very excited to bake my first loaf ouf sourdough rye bread. I hope it turns out as well as the one my family used to bake in Germany. I know the dome will help.

I make a lot of bread in my breadmaker and often make the bread dough which I finish in the oven. I have not been able to achieve a really crusty bread and thought this bread dome would help me get the kind of crusty bread I want. Unfortunatley I have wasted a lot of money as the bread is no crustier than the bread I was baking on a pizza stone. The bread is good, but I could have achieved the same product doing it the same I've been doing and not spent so much money.
