6.2 Bread Baking

For optimal bread baking, follow these general steps:

1. Алдын ала ысытуу: Place the empty bread oven (base and lid) into a cold oven. Preheat the oven to your desired baking temperature (typically 450-500°F / 230-260°C) for at least 30-60 minutes. This ensures the cast iron is thoroughly heated.
2. Камырды даярдоо: While the oven preheats, prepare your sourdough or artisan bread dough. Lightly flour the interior of the hot base if desired, or use parchment paper for easier transfer.
3. Transfer Dough: Carefully remove the hot bread oven from the preheated oven using the silicone gloves. Place your dough into the hot base.
4. Bake with Lid: Cover the base with the dome lid. The dome lid traps steam, which is crucial for a good oven spring and a crispy crust. Return the covered oven to the hot oven. Bake for the initial period specified in your recipe (e.g., 20-30 minutes).
5. Bake Uncovered: Carefully remove the lid using the silicone gloves. Continue baking uncovered for the remaining time (e.g., 15-25 minutes) until the crust is golden brown and the internal temperature of the bread reaches approximately 200-210°F (93-99°C).
6. Баракелде: Carefully remove the bread from the oven and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
