Multigrain Clover Honey Sourdough Bread

I bought myself a baking cloche for my birthday. What is a baking cloche, you ask? well, in essence, it is a glorified up-side-down cast iron dutch oven. Normally, I do my bread baking in a 6 Quart round or oval Le Creuset pot, so this is similar, only the bottom is shallow and the top is bell shaped. I didn’t notice much of a difference in all in the baking (though I will say that the Multigrain Clover Honey Sourdough Bread that I made is super delicious), but it sure was easier not to burn myself trying to get the loaf out.

Bacon Caramelized Onion + Cheese Hand Pies

Rosemary Red Onion + Olive Sourdough Focaccia

I bought myself a new baking pan — what’s called a french slab, made of ceramic (from Made In Cookware) — and of course I had to try it out. Designed to make shallow pies, bars or, in my case, focaccia. I am super happy with how my bread turned out. It’s almost got this friend result on the bottom. It’s going to be great for snacking, but I think I’ll also try to make a nice Italian-style sandwich from it. Really light and airy.
