Know before you buy
The hinged side allows you to open the mold completely, which makes unmolding delicate pâté en croûte much easier without damaging the crust. It also simplifies the cleaning process by providing full access to the interior corners.
To preserve the non-stick coating, avoid using metal utensils that could scratch the surface. We recommend hand washing with a soft sponge and mild detergent rather than using the dishwasher.
The steel construction provides excellent heat conductivity, which is essential for achieving a crisp, golden-brown crust. The protective enamel exterior further helps distribute heat evenly to prevent hot spots.
Yes, the rectangular shape and non-stick surface make it suitable for various loaf-style recipes, including savory terrines, specialty breads, or even dense cakes that require a clean release.
