5.0 out of 5 stars perfect for 5-minute Artisan bread, January 17, 2010

This review is from: Cambro Round Food Storage Container Sets (Kitchen)

I purchased these containers specifically for making bread with the "5-minute Artisan bread" recipe. It costs less to buy these two containers, with lids included, than it does to buy one container and the lid that's sold separately (I still can't figure out that marketing scheme).

Readers of the 5-minute Artisan bread book will wonder about whether or not the lids are air-tight. I don't know if they are air-tight or not, but I've made several batches of dough and stowed them in the refrigerator with the lid on tight with no problems. I initially considered punching a small hole in the lid, but it's not necessary (at least it was not with the set I received). If concerned one can easily leave the lid partially unfastened or drill/punch a hole in the lid.

Those who want to buy a container for making 5-minute Artisan bread will find these to be perfect. They would also be useful for storing items (like flour for more bread). They are easy to clean (mine had no oily film on them like one reviewer claimed) and durable. These are the ones to buy.

This review is from: Cambro RFS6PPSW2190 6-Quart Round Food-Storage Container with Lid, Set of 2 (Kitchen)

I got these specifically for the bread dough recipes in a book. They are just the right size and come with lids. Now, before you scoff, you should look at other similar containers - you have to buy the lids SEPARATELY which just seemed so strange to me. I am pretty happy with these - two is good because I can rotate them.

I gave them four instead of five because they came with some sort of light greasy coating that was nearly impossible to wash off. Dishwasher didn't take it off. Hand-washing with liquid dishsoap didn't take it off. I ended up soaking them in super-hot water with a little bleach to get it off. I'm sure it's something added in the manufacture, but had I not been inspecting them carefully, I might have missed the fact that it was not washing off very well. Now that they are clean, I love them!

Initially I wasn't sure this would be worth the money, but I'm so glad I bought these! This two-pack with lids is a great deal, and I even did comparison pricing with a local restaurant supply shop that often has bargains. The supply store also sold these containers, again with the lids separately, making the purchase of one container and lid roughly $12. I ordered these containers to use with recipes from Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day, as well as the Healthy Bread book, and I am thrilled. I didn't find an unusual coating on the containers after unwrapping them as a previous reviewer did. In fact, I gave them a good wash with soap and water and promptly filled them with dough to refrigerate. These containers are worlds easier to use than my randomly shaped mixing bowls covered with plastic wrap that never really sticks and just fills the garbage can. I may also try brining a smaller chicken for the first time, now that I have the perfect container!
