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.
