Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Reco International French/Italian Bread Baker
Customer Review: a little complicated, but you can taste it's worth it
Summary: 3 Stars
using these baking pans has added an extra couple steps to the already arduous task of making french bread at home, however, I have really been able to tell the difference. These bakers are incredibly sensitive to temperature changes, so it is required that you take real special care when using them. I have used them twice so far and they already have stress fractures all through them. And I thought I was being careful. So you apparently need to baby them in a way that I haven't quite figured out yet. But the bread they make is exquisite. So hopefully they'll last a few more bakings. I think time will be the ultimate judge of how well these bakers actually "pan" out.
Description of Reco International French/Italian Bread Baker
The Romertopf Clay French/Italian Bread Baker is large enough to make beautiful loaves of bread. It is made of their special porous clay that allows the bread to breathe during the baking process. This special clay provides even heating to promote a better rise and the holds the moisture so the end result is a crispy crust.For centuries food has been cooked in earthenware pots over open fires or in brick ovens. Römertopf carries on this tradition by crafting clay pots and dishes specifically intended for cooking a variety of vegetables, meats, casseroles, and breads in the home oven. Manufactured in Mexico, each vessel is made from unglazed and porous terra cotta containing no lead or cadmium. Before each use, the pot is soaked in water in order to absorb a certain amount of moisture into the permeable clay. This moisture is slowly released during cooking, sealing in the natural juices and increasing the flavor and tenderness.
Decorated to look like a bread basket, the Römertopf French/Italian bread baker is sculpted with a lattice-work exterior and braided-rope outer lip. Measuring 4 by 13 inches, the baker is ideal for longer French and Italian loaves. A glazed interior ensures that the bread does not stick to the bottom or sides of the baker. While the baker can be used in both the oven and microwave, it is intended to be used primarily in the oven. Due to their porous and unglazed nature, the pots should not be exposed to extreme temperature changes, and Römertopf recommends washing all clay pots by hand. --Lea Werbel
