One writer and avid bread baker reviews the Challenger Breadware Bread Pan, a cast-iron pan with a domed lid, angled handles, and a flat bottom that she says bakes better loaves than her Lodge Combo Cooker and Le Creuset Dutch oven..
Although the no-knead bread recipe calls for any Dutch oven to create the superhot oven-within-an-oven, the Lodge does the same while giving you even more: a deep skillet, a fry pan, a small griddle, and a lidded Dutch oven for around $30. Because it’s not as big as most ceramic Dutch ovens, it’s easier to get in and out of doll-size New York ovens. And it’s cast-iron, which lasts forever and gets better with age. Since that first loaf, we’ve used it for levain loaves, thick-crust pan pizza, and even Chinese-style scallion pancakes, making it (and him) a true combo cooker.
