Carbon Steel Pullman Loaf Pan with Lid Cover, 2 Pack, Gold

The bread pan, also known as a loaf pan, is a kitchen utensil designed to bake bread in a container. Its main function is to shape the bread while it rises during the baking process. The common loaf shape of the bread pan makes it convenient for uniform slicing, perfect for making sandwiches, Texas toast, French toast (Brioche), American gold brick toast, English toast, Dark Rye grain bread, and traditional pain de mie loaf.

When baking with batter, it is recommended to use parchment paper. The bread pan is resistant to temperatures up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit (230 degrees Celsius), but it is not recommended to bake at temperatures above 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius) for more than 30 minutes or to bake with an empty pan.

For maintenance, it is suggested to wipe the pan with a thin layer of oil before first-time use to prevent burning. Regular maintenance of the non-stick coating is necessary. To clean, it is recommended to hand wash the pan and avoid soaking it in water or using abrasive brushes. If the pan becomes very greasy, a mixture of baking soda, soap, and water can be used to remove grease and stains.

The package content includes a Loaf Pan with Sliding Lid, perfect for preventing sandwich bread from sprawling out when baking. The tall-sided pain de mie pan offers extra rising support for dough that needs additional support during baking. The bottom vent hole promotes good air circulation for even heating of the dough. For perfect square slices, use a Pullman pan for filled swirl bread.

The decision to use the lid or not depends on the type of bread being baked. For quick bread or traditional raised cake that doesn't require the lid, it can be set aside. Despite their specialized name, these rectangular pans are versatile and can be used for cooking, freezing, desserts, and more. They are great for making meatloaf, lasagna, baked ziti, pie, chicken pot pie, and more.
