Dutch oven bread stuck!
Ack! I just took some bread out of the oven that I baked with the Dutch oven/bread crock method, and it is TOTALLY stuck in there! I've never had the sticking problem before and don't know what I did differently. A) any suggestions for how to get it out? B) How do I keep that from ever happening again?

I don't know for sure if this would help, but you may also consider the temp of your oven. I bake my Dutch oven bread starting at 500F for 20 min (with the combo cooker preheated, of course), and then reduce the temp to 450. This really forms a thick, hard crust, which easily separates from the cooker when you take it out of the oven. It's almost like the intense heat of the pan cauterizes the dough on the bottom, preventing it from sticking.

Good luck! Stuck baked goods are always a bummer.
