About this episode
This episode discusses the benefits of using a Dutch oven for baking hard crusted breads.
I recommend baking in a Dutch oven for every home baker desiring to bake hard crusted breads. It is just the easiest way to add steam to the bake, and you really don't add anything as a Dutch oven with a lid captures the natural moisture coming off the dough. Moisture in the oven during the beginning part of baking allows your bread to rise fully, deepens the crust color, and finally, adds a level of shininess to the exterior.
