Enamelled Cast Iron Dutch Oven Bread Pot, Nuovva

This enamelled cast iron Dutch oven bread pot creates the steam needed for a crisp crust, an even rise and a soft crumb when baking homemade bread. 

The cast iron construction absorbs and retains heat for consistent baking, while the domed lid traps moisture to recreate the conditions of a professional bread oven. The enamel coating requires no seasoning, resists rust and is easy to maintain. Compatible with gas, electric, ceramic and induction hobs, it's oven-safe up to 260°C and can also be used for roasting, braising and slow cooking.

Which size do I need?

The 5.6L bread pot is well suited to baking standard sourdough and artisan loaves while also providing enough capacity for family-sized casseroles, stews and roasts. Choose a larger Dutch oven if you regularly cook larger batches or bake oversized loaves.

🧑‍🍳 Baking with Your Bread Pot
Whether you're baking your first sourdough or your fiftieth, your Nuovva bread pot makes it simple. Preheat both pot and lid to get that bakery-style steam effect. Once hot, gently place your shaped dough inside and cover with the lid. Bake covered for a crisp crust, then uncover for the final golden finish.

Tip: A sheet of baking paper helps with lifting your loaf out!

✨ Cleaning & Maintenance
Let the pot cool fully before washing. Hand wash with warm soapy water — no steel wool or abrasives. Avoid putting cold water into a hot pot (it can cause thermal shock and damage the enamel).

If dough sticks, soak the pot briefly and use a soft sponge to lift residue.

🛠️ Everyday Tips to Keep It Looking Great

• Use wooden, silicone, or plastic utensils to protect the enamel.
• Dry thoroughly after washing to prevent rusting on the rim or lid edge.
• Store with the lid off or a paper towel inside to allow air circulation.
