Know before you buy
No, the PADELE bread pan comes pre-seasoned and ready for immediate use. However, continuing to lightly oil the pan after each cleaning will help maintain and improve its non-stick properties over time.
Yes, this cast iron pan is compatible with induction cooktops, as well as electric and gas stoves, Blackstone griddles, and even campfires.
You can bake with or without the lid depending on your desired crust. Using the lid creates a steam-trapping environment perfect for a soft, uniform Pullman loaf, while removing it allows for a darker, crunchier crust.
Dishwashers use harsh detergents and high-pressure water that will strip away the protective seasoning layer, leading to rust. To keep the cast iron in top condition, it must be hand-washed, dried thoroughly, and lightly oiled.
The pan is oven-safe up to 500°F. This makes it suitable for high-heat recipes, including artisanal breads that require a hot oven for a proper rise.
A 2lb capacity refers to the weight of the finished loaf. For best results, aim for a dough weight that fills the pan about halfway to two-thirds full to allow enough room for the final proof and oven spring.
