Why use a Dutch oven?
Why use a Dutch oven?
Learning how to bake bread with enough steam in a domestic oven is the first challenge for a home baker when embarking on their bread journey. A Dutch oven, which is a pot made entirely of cast iron allows for enough heat & steam to replicate a commercial bread oven environment & so is the preferred method when making bread at home.
Our bread specific Dutch ovens are perfect for baking bread & gives perfect results every time.
How it works
During the initial stages of baking, steam is released inside the chamber of a Dutch oven (sealed by a lid), this keeps the dough moist allowing the bread to develop a crispy, shiny crust and attain maximal volume.

While I can't comment on how the bread turns out as I bought the kit for a Christmas present, I can comment on how well packaged it came and the very fast delivery. The presentation in the box was excellent and I'm betting my daughter in law will love it when she opens it at Christmas! I'm glad to see you're also using locally sourced flour, instead of overseas flour. Well done!
This kit is fantastic quality and conveniently contains everything needed to start baking. I’ve been happily making sourdough every few days and I won’t be stopping any time soon!
Amazing kit with easy to follow instructions. The videos are SO helpful! We made a successful first loaf. It is a labour of love but hopefully as time goes on it gets easier
I have been making sourdough bread in a tin for many years, but with the videos I watched and the kit I bought from Sourdough Mate I have taken the plunge with a rustic free-form loaf baked in my dutch oven and it is really a step up. I love the banneton and especially enjoy using the mixing wand for the starter! Thanks, great products and service.
The complete sourdough starter kit contained everything required and included good quality equipment. Looking forward to perfecting my loaves!
