Thanks to Wilton Armetale we have a new bread-baker in our Rural Mom kitchen… one that’s certainly giving our cast iron pans a run for the dough! |
If you’ve followed Rural Mom for any length of time, you know I’m a huge fan of cast iron. From biscuits to pizza to fresh bread, I can always rely on it to turn out an evenly baked dough with a perfectly-browned crust.
Right now, though, there’s a “battle for the bread” going on in my Rural Mom kitchen since Wilton Armetale moved in. The Wilton Armetale Grillware Griddle that I expected to be using solely for outdoor grilling has now found a great purpose indoors as my new preferred platform for bread baking.
Wilton Armetale products are a metal mixture of over 10 different metals and have similar cooking property to cast iron pieces but unlike cast iron, the pieces do not need to be seasoned and will not rust. (If you have cast iron pieces and season regularly, you can truly appreciate the joys of this fabulous feature!) They also require no polishing and won’t crack, chip, dent or tarnish.
Like cast iron, they are not microwave or dishwasher safe, but this minor inconvenience of washing by hand is well worth the delightful baking experience these products offer!
Now, my cast iron pieces will not be leaving my kitchen, but Wilton Armetale will continue to join the mix. These are items that will enjoy a long history in our family kitchen, lasting for generations to come.
The Wilton Armetale Grillware Griddle is a product I’ll use over an over for baking as well as outdoor grilling. It’s a great piece to use for grilling fish and vegetables without having to worry about small pieces slipping through grates on the grill. As it’s extremely durable, it’s also ideal for camping trip to whip up a tasty pancake and sausage breakfast.

Your bread looks great and this sounds like a wonderful pan and very versatile. I’m impressed that they construct this with 10 different metals and have the cooking property to cast iron. I love my cast iron too.
They sound sturdy and must be if they don’t dent ect.
Color me impressed, too, Grace. I never thought I’d ever find something so comparable to cast iron, but both now have my attention in the kitchen 🙂
I really want to make homemade bread like that. You have inspired me to try. It looks beautiful.
Wow, that’s fabulous! So glad to hear I inspired you and would love to know how your homemade bread turns out!
Huh, homemade bread on a griddle? I would have never even thought of that. Your bread looks so good, I want a piece! Thanks for introducing me to Armetele’s products and a new way to make bread.
Thanks Linda! Cast iron has always been a favorite of mine to use for any bread base including pizza and now Wilton Armetele has stepped in as an equal… the griddle is just a really easy piece to use for this purpose as it has ample surface for making several loaves, but I’ve even used skillets and other shapes. Swear by it. Hope you give it a try and do let me know what you think, if you do!
That certainly looks like a nice griddle and the bread is tempting too. You need to share the recipe.
The base recipe for the bread pictured is adapted from the book Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day, which I highly recommend!
I totally need one of these! My family loves bread and I need to start making it more at home rather than the expensive ones at the bakery.
Thanks wonderful, Daisy. It is such a money savor and goodness, the house smells great when you are baking!
