Emile Henry Italian Loaf Baker

Emile Henry Italian Loaf Baker — Glazed
Along with the rising popularity of the no-knead bread baking technique, our oblong cloche has become one of our most popular models. Emile Henry has now joined the fun.
High hydration (wetter) doughs, such as no-knead dough, tend to flatten out during baking. However, the sides of this baker shore up the dough, forcing an upward rise and consequently a better shape. You’ll also have a loaf shape more suitable for sandwiches and toasting.
The moist dough within the Emile Henry baker creates the steam needed to produce a delicious bread with a crackly, golden crust and a more open crumb. It completely eliminates the need to spritz your bread, pour water in a hot skillet or any such thing to get the nice crust you are after. The natural clay baking dish and domed lid will simulate a hearth oven in your kitchen.
Breadtopia recommends the Oblong Rattan proofing basket to use with this oblong cloche.

Emile Henry’s ceramic bakeware has been made in Marcigny, France since 1850. The natural high-fired, burgundy clay is unmatched in heat conduction and retention. Emile Henry’s Oven Ceramic is made with an exclusive process to produce strong and durable ceramic bakeware for everyday use.
- Resistance Against Mechanical Shocks: During everyday use, there are many opportunities to bang a dish or a set of plates. Particularly resistant to shocks, Emile Henry ceramic is even used in restaurants.
- Resistance Against Temperature Changes: Will withstand wide variations in temperature. Emile Henry ceramic products can be taken directly from the freezer to the hot oven (+250°C/500°F).
- Resistance Against Fading Colors: Heat, the dishwasher or sharp instruments will all have an aging effect on a product. However, Emile Henry glazes are particularly resistant to the dishwasher and strong detergents.

This was my first ever purchase from Breadtopia, and it was a great one. I love this baker for homemade sourdough loaves. It’s true it is pricey, but the quality is superb. I have now had it almost two years and still love it. It’s a treat to bake with quality equipment!

Loving this baker. I did find heating up the bottom portion of the baker in the oven for about 20 minutes first to be the best way to go about it. I pulled it out, layered with a bit of flour, gently eased my loaf out of the proofing basket and, Voilå, beautiful bread!

I bought this roughly 2 months ago so i could make long loaves. Ive used it a ton so far and love it. Dont really write reviews but reallylove breadtopia site and love how geared it is towards home bread baking:) anyway love the baker, i gave it a heavy coating of grapeseed oil when i first got it and rou ghly the first few times after also the first few loaves i baked ob parchment cause i was scared theyd stick. I never use parchment now and have yet to have a loaf stick. Anyway i love this baker and cant ssay enough good about it besides i wish i had two of them or even the baguette maker they make. Just bought a refurbished mockmill too from them too. Really feel like this is the only site the home baker needs:) happy baking:)
