Enamelled Cast Iron Dutch Oven Pot – Dutch Oven For Sourdough Bread Baking – Cast Iron Bread Pot – Blue, 6 Quarts, 26cm – by Nuovva

Somewhere between watching steam rise from a fresh 12-grain boule and hearing the crack of crust as it cooled, I realized this pot had officially joined the short list of things I’d grab in a house fire.Let’s start with the color: deep, rich blue with just the right amount of enamel gloss to feel like you have your life together — or at least like you're trying. It sits on the stove like it owns the place, and honestly? It kind of does.Now the performance:I use this primarily for bread, specifically a homemade 12-grain boule that I pretend is rustic and wholesome but is really just my ADHD therapy project in edible form. This Dutch oven nails it every time. The size (6 quarts) is perfect — not too cavernous, not too shallow. Just enough to let your dough rise into the kind of round, radiant loaf that says: yes, I do read ingredient labels, and no, I’m not going back to store-bought.Heat distribution? Even.Steam retention? Excellent.Cleaning? Surprisingly chill, as long as you don’t treat it like a steel pan from 1994.It’s sturdy without being a wrist injury. It holds heat like it’s personal. And it does all of this without the premium price tag that usually comes with cookware that has a French name and generational baggage.I haven’t made chili in it yet, but let’s not kid ourselves — that’s only because I’m still too focused on baking loaves and pretending I’m in a cottagecore montage.Final note: if you’re on the fence, wondering if you need a dedicated bread pot — you do. This one. Right here. Skip the influencer-stamped $400 ones and go with this hardworking, beautiful beast that just quietly delivers.This isn’t a purchase. It’s a culinary turning point.

I am SO happy that I found this bread pot! I was searching for a bread pot to make sourdough, but all the name brand stores were extremely expensive - up to $300+. This works beautifully, is easy to clean, and bakes my bread perfectly. I've recommended this to several other bread-making friends. A must-buy for sourdough newbies!

I usually bake 2 loaves of sourdough at a time, so I got this to match my teal Dutch oven. It’s great quality, bakes with even heat distribution, and the enamel coating is easy to maintain and more rust resistant. It also works fantastically for searing steaks, chicken or pork chops, and then popping them into the oven…I love when I don’t have to dirty up multiple pots & pans!

This is the perfect dutch oven for making sourdough bread. made of great quality, Easy to clean. color is perfect for my kitchen Works as described. Would definitely recommend

I am THRILLED with this bread cloche. The lid sits on the base firmly and securely--no wobbling or gaps. I've had some of my best loaves of bread since using this. In the past, I've used other dutch ovens (including Lodge and Le Creuset) as well as a baking stone with a pan of water for steam. This cloche is my favorite by far. I don't always like buying expensive things that have only one purpose, but this was worth it, and I bake bread about 1x/week, so it's definitely getting a workout. The blue is a beautiful blue ombre. Very soothing.

I use this for baking sourdough boules. It has worked very well. No chipping or cracking. I use it a lot at high temps. Im happy with this purchase. It is heavy. The color and fish is beautiful.

Bakes a perfect loaf of sourdough bread. I’ve also used it with excellent results to roast chicken and lamb. Very happy with this purchase.

Baked my first loaf in this tonight, as soon as it arrived!! I love this dutch oven so much already!Update: I do notice that the ceramic bottom does seem to change color or “get burnt” when using high temperatures. It still works great, however, if you can look past the brown marks!
