Emile Henry Burgundy Italian Bread Loaf Baker

This specially designed covered baker helps you craft bakery-worthy, artisan breads with crisp, golden crusts and chewy, airy interiors. The domed lid and ceramic walls trap steam, creating a dry, crackling exterior. The ridges on the bottom prevent the dough from sticking, and the handles on the lid make it easy to manipulate.

If, during cleaning, you find that some residue will not come off, simply soak the baker in hot water and white vinegar before placing it in the dishwasher. For more compact storage, the base fits neatly inside the lid.

Our tip for achieving a delicious golden crust: remove the lid during the last five minutes of baking. This versatile baker is dishwasher-safe, and comes with a 10-year warranty and a recipe book to inspire your baking adventures.

The key to the baker's performance lies in its ingenious design. The domed lid and ceramic construction work together to trap steam, mimicking the professional-grade ovens used in bakeries. This steam-filled environment is crucial for developing the perfect crust – crisp on the outside, yet soft and chewy on the inside.

The ridged bottom of the baker prevents the dough from sticking, ensuring your loaves release easily and retain their shape. And the convenient handles on the lid make it a breeze to maneuver, whether you're transferring the bread to the oven or removing the lid for that final burst of heat.

Cleaning up is a hassle-free process, too. If you encounter any stubborn residue, a quick soak in hot water and white vinegar will have your baker looking good as new. And when it's time to store it away, the nesting design of the base and lid allows for compact, space-saving storage.

For the best results, we recommend removing the lid during the final minutes of baking. This allows the crust to develop that sought-after golden hue and perfect crackle. With this simple tip, you'll be able to recreate the artisanal quality of breads straight from the bakery, right in your own kitchen.

Backed by a 10-year warranty, this versatile baker is built to last. And with the included recipe book, you'll have plenty of inspiration to experiment with different doughs and techniques, exploring the full potential of your new kitchen essential.
