Emile Henry Bread Cloche

Emile Henry’s bread cloche is made from refractory Burgundy clay that has the same properties as a traditional stone bread oven. The domed cloche baker traps the moisture rising from your dough and holds it as steam through the early bake, then lets the steam evaporate so the loaf sets tender and finishes crisp. It’s a design that turns your oven into a true bread oven, giving you rustic boules and sourdough rounds with a deep, crackling crust and a light, open crumb. Suitable for bread recipes containing up to 4 cups of flour.

Emile Henry bakeware has made in Marcigny France since 1850 from high fired Burgundy clay. The natural clay is unsurpassed for conducting and retaining heat, and is made with an exclusive process to produce strong and durable ceramic pieces for everyday use. Emile Henry bakeware is so durable that it can be taken directly from the freezer to a hot oven of 500 F without a worry, and it’s guaranteed by Emile Henry for 10 years. It’s of course safe in the microwave and in the dishwasher.
