I have been baking bread for 40 years this is one of the best pans I’ve ever had. I seasoned it with peanut oil put it in the oven at 400° for 30 minutes wiped it out with a paper towel and since then have not had to put any oil or grease in the pan to bake my bread. You do not even have to wash it because the bread comes out so clean. The loaf you see here is made with 700 g of flour which 250 of it was whole wheat, two eggs,450 g of water along with salt, yeast, butter and 95 grams (1packet of dry milk powder)The first loaves I made did not make it to the top of the pan so I end up using this recipe. Anyway it is a great pan I am using it almost every three or four days I cut my loaves in half and freeze half so I am not buying bread at the store at all anymore. I thought the price Was a little high but it is worth it. If you like homemade bread you will not be disappointed.
