Re: Do You Have a Le Creuset Bread Oven?

I think that is a very pretty pot. However not at the price I am sure it costs--so not a must have for me. I do have a 6 1/2 qt dutch oven that my dear SIL gave me that I have baked bread in --but the dang thing is so heavy!!! It is a beautiful red color and is an off brand. Haven't used it except for that 18 hour bread that was poplar and it worked great--but again--so flipping heavy!!!

Re: Do You Have a Le Creuset Bread Oven?

I used the aldi bread oven today and I really prefer it over baking in a Dutch oven. So much easier to move the dough (my recipe is pretty wet) and beautiful even browning. I haven’t used a LC bread oven but I like that the aldi one has the light interior vs the black of LC. Highly recommend if you can find one. Hope it holds up, and it is pretty. I got the blue one, it’s a blue/gray/slight green color, and the ombré looks good.

I have baked bread in a cast iron Dutch oven. I also have a small zozirushi bread machine. I need to start baking bread again.

Re: Do You Have a Le Creuset Bread Oven?

I used my Aldi bread cloche today for the first time.  I made two loaves and they both turned out great

The crust was thin and crispy and the inside was chewy, but light.

 

I'll enjoy using it and I am happy that is was affordable.  No need to buy the LeCreuset brand.

The Aldi bread ovens appear to have sold out everywhere. But I see that ebay sellers must have hoarded them and are now selling them on ebay for $100 or more. 

 

I'm sure Aldi will manufacture more in time, seeing as the first batch sold out.

Purchased the bread oven in blue from Aldi. I've baked bread twice and it did a beautiful job

Re: Do You Have a Le Creuset Bread Oven?

The bread oven from Aldi has been getting excellent reviews. I was at Aldi early in the day and my store had about fourteen of them. I purchased on for my daughter for Christmas and am sorry I didn't purchase one for myself.
