Flower Bread in a Cast Iron Pot
Cast iron pans and pots are the dreams of everyone who likes to spend time in the kitchen and is interested in kitchen utensils. The reason for this is that it is long-lasting, even inherited, as well as spreading the heat evenly over the entire surface and keeping the temperature for a long time. Thus, it achieves excellent results in dishes that require long cooking on low heat and using an oven.
I think my first cast iron pan was a gift last year. Since then, whenever I want to cook, my hand goes to it first. The more I cook with it, the more flavorful and delicious I make it. I think the pan also adds something of itself to the dish.
I used my 19 cm diameter Stewpan pot for bread making. Thanks to its heavy lid, there is no need to wrap the bread with anything extra while fermenting.
It gave much better results than the clamp mold in oven use. Thanks to the even distribution of heat, the bread was evenly baked on all sides.
Following the recipe on the back of the grain flour mixture I bought, I left the bread by hand instead of leaving it in the bread machine. I put on the kneading head of the mixer to knead. It gave very good results as it was fermented next to the heater. After shaping, I continued the fermentation process in the pot.
A final note, do not hold your cast iron pans and pots that have been heated on the stove or in the oven with your bare hands.
I will write a lot about cast iron pans, pots and grills. Love…
