It is said that ceramic baking utensils can contain lead. Do you know if this product has been tested as lead free?

Having spent time in France, I know food and the preparation of food is an art. While there, we went to stores selling their products. I asked the same question and was assured Emile Henry bakers do not contain lead, nickel or cadmium. I have baked many baguettes and am amazed at how beautifully it performs.

From what materials is this made? ceramic? enamel coated cast iron?

It is made of ceramic, coated outside and on the base (inside dome is not coated - maintains the steam)- I initially used flour to create a non-stick surface where the bread goes and over time it becomes non-stick. It works like a dream - my baguettes are golden and crispy. Just like having a steam oven at home. I also have the boule cloche! Highly recommend! (Don't overload, recommends using 150g for each loaf - otherwise sticks to the top.

Since this is glazed and can not be soaked in water like clay bakers, how does one get the steam effect? Use a pan with water in the oven?

The inside of the dome is not glazed, and I usually give it a light spray before placing in oven. The steam generated by the bread baking is the primary source. The dome fits well steam generated in the oven cavity would not reach the baguettes.

What advantage having top cover? does improve bread baking over open standard rack? Thank you.

It seems to keep the majority of the moisture in while baking... Not only helps with the baking, but the bread is so fresh tasting

Excellent for proving and baking

Excellent for proving and baking. The baking times need some checking. I use 30 mins with lid on 10 mins lid off 190-200 deg fan oven. Rubbing oil on inside before adding rice flour makes it non stick

Recommended for home bread bakers!

Great item, if somewhat expensive, for baking homemade baguettes. The 3 baguettes are a little shorter than commercial, only 15”, but any longer wouldn’t fit in a standard home oven. EDIT: 1 year later, still 5 stars, still highly recommended, still too expensive, still worth it.

El mejor producto para Baguettes !

Tengo piedra para horno, molde ondulado, etc etc, todo lo que uno puede usar para hornear baguettes. Sin embargo este producto de Emile Henry fue lo mejor para hacerlas ! No olvidar enharinar bien la base para que no se peguen. Además prueben la receta que viene junto con el producto ! Es genial y muy fácil de hacer. (Solo agreguenle una cucharadita de "diastatic malt powder" que las hace más doradas y esponja la miga.
