Inverted Dutch Oven

(134 customer reviews)

Original price was: R1,200.00.Current price is: R850.00.

A good quality Dutch oven is a must for home bread bakers. The thick cast iron, when pre-heated, transfers extra heat into the dough when baking. This results in loaves with greater volume and lighter texture. Our inverted Dutch oven means you can optionally turn the dough onto the lid instead of dropping it into a deep pot. This prevents potential burn injuries and makes scoring the dough very simple.

A good quality Dutch oven is a must for home bread bakers. The thick cast iron, when pre-heated, transfers extra heat into the dough when baking. The Dutch oven also traps steam in the pot while baking. This results in loaves with greater volume and lighter texture. Our inverted Dutch oven means you can turn the dough onto the lid instead of dropping it into a deep pot. This prevents potential burn injuries and makes scoring the dough very simple.

How to use – Preheat the Dutch oven for at least 30 minutes. Then turn your dough onto the lid section of the Dutch oven and score the dough. Place the top half of the Dutch oven onto the lid section. Put the Dutch oven into the oven. Remove the top half of the Dutch oven after 25 minutes of baking. Bake for another 10 – 15 minutes or until well browned.

Care instructions – Wash with warm water and mild soap. Dry completely to prevent rust (important!). Season by rubbing a thin layer of oil onto the Dutch oven. Use a paper towel to remove any excess oil. The more you use and oil the pot, the more seasoned it will become. If the pot does rust, it can be scrubbed with steel wool and reseasoned.

    Great product. Service from Bread Emporium exceptional. The only negative is the payment through Yoco did not go well, locked cards and a two hour wait with the banks to sort out. Also no instant EFT to ABSA

    excellent buy at the perfect. Was not willing to part with the amount of money the more established “brand” is charging for a good dutch oven. this is perfect for my breads and can be inverted and be used as a pot as well. wel worth it.

    Very good quality Dutch Oven. I highly recommend this product for someone who wants to bake a Sourdough bread with a good texture. Also, the delivery was very quick and good. I am very pleased and happy!

  46. Asmaa F. (verified owner)

    I was stuck between getting this one or the LC bread oven. I decided to get this for practicality – as it seemed to me that I could use it for far more ways than I would be able to a typical bread oven.

    Don’t regret my purchase at all. Love this dutch oven because it acts as a bread oven if you invert it, or it could act as a normal dutch oven pot – to use for both bread and cooking. I love it so much and happy with my purchase

  47. Jessica (verified owner)

    I bought this along with my starter kit so I can start both journeys together – sourdough and cast iron cooking for the great health benefits and convenience but most of all to encourage these beneficial traditions back into our family for generations to come. I may even try the lid as a skillet too 🙂

  48. DA (verified owner)

    Love the size and weight of the bread oven, as my dutch oven is much heavier. More importantly cooks my bread perfectly.

  49. Ang K. (verified owner)

    Prompt order and delivery! Fantastic product. (only thing no instructions on care of the pot…googled and said to ensure dried properly and oiled, so it leaves a bit of an “old oil” odour?)….so a sheet of instructions would have been useful!

    Very, extremely fast shipping and delivery. Product exactly as described.

  104. Tamaryn (verified owner)

    The surface is a little rough to start…but responded well to 1x round of seasoning before baking with it. Great bakes from the first time…game changer for baking sourdough in my inconsistent oven!

  105. Sarah (verified owner)

    So much easier to get the bread into and out of the pan! I always used to burn myself with my old pan but not with how this inverted pan is shaped. It is high quality and creates a great rise. I also like the added bonus that it can be used to cook other things and will last a lifetime, so it is an even better investment. My favorite item I’ve purchased for sourdough baking!

  106. Alison North (verified owner)

    Takes my sourdough loaves to the next level (or two)! Delighted with my Dutch Oven.

    Extremely Happy 😊 with my purchased and the speedy delivery. Will most definitely 👍 buy more products again. Looking forward to it !

  108. Marco Savio (verified owner)

    it was everything I expected it to be and as advertised. Not as heavy as similar cast iron pots which makes it easier to handle and the deep pot profile makes it perfect for dutch oven bread making. Bread Emporium experience was a good one, from online order to delivery, perfect!

    This pot was exactly what I needed. I was previously baking in a beautiful orange enameled cast iron pot and after 5 loaves of sourdough it was starting to show some signs of wear and tear. I have already used this pot both ways up and its a great asset to the baker’s kitchen.

    Works well. Instead of using oil for storing, I use liquid paraffin. Liquid paraffin is also food-safe (people drink small quantities of it for centuries) and it does not harden, as plant oils would. If you bake regularly and clean the dutch oven before baking, the oil wouldn’t be a problem.
