Review: How to use properly - I bought the boule and the batard. I would suggest the batard for making bread rolls ( and they are amazing) the boule for making full loaves of bread. Little tip spray both with water before placing over dough and grease the inner rim to avoid dough sticking. Other than that, perfect.
Review: Great for sourdough - I bought this alongside the baking steel works brilliantly for my sourdough no heavy lifting, light to hold great handle excellent quality, my bread turns out great

## Features

- BAKERY-QUALITY BREAD AT HOME - The Baking Shell creates the ideal environment for professional quality bread. Traps steam and evenly distributes heat for professional looking loaves with a crispy, golden crust and an airy interior.
- NO PREHEATING REQUIRED – Unlike a Dutch oven, this shell requires no preheating, so there's no need to touch a hot container. Just place your dough on a flat baking surface and cover with the shell. It also cools fast and won’t crack.
- LIGHTWEIGHT & EASY TO CLEAN – This ultralight shell weighs just 0.48 kg, unlike a 7-8 kg Dutch oven. Cleanup is simple, just give it a quick wipe, no need to scrub and re-season. This baking shell makes bread baking faster and easier.
- 3 EASY STEPS – 1. Preheat your oven with a steel or stone. 2. Place your risen dough on the hot surface. 3. Cover with the shell. That’s it! After 20 minutes, remove the shell and finish baking uncovered to brown the crust. It’s the simplest way to bake artisan bread at home.
- HOME-OVEN FRIENDLY – Designed for both gas and electric ovens. Works on stones, steels, or baking sheets. The food-safe aluminium withstands up to 288 °C and contains no chemical coatings like PTFE or PFOA. Dimensions: 203 x 140 x 318 mm.
