Cotton Oven Mitts

These are the first oven mitts I've used that didn't burn my hands. These double-knit cotton oven mitts are made specifically for the bakery trade and are very heat-resistant. The oven mitts are certified up to a temperature of 250°C. With these oven mitts even heavy roasting pans or steel baking plates can be easily lifted from a hot oven. Although the oven mitts are a size 10, they are also suitable for smaller hands since they shrink slightly after the first wash and the soft material conforms well to the hand. I had the mitts tested on hands from size 6 to 12 and everyone was delighted with the fit. Since the cotton terry cloth fabric loses fine fibers, I recommend washing the oven mitts twice before use. As a forewarning, cotton fibers can burn when handling very hot oven dishes. In order to avoid this, it is better to use oven mitts or potholders made from leather.

Care instructions

Do you love crispy bread with an airy crumb? Then the Challenger Bread Pan is just right for you! The original Challenger cast iron bread pan, developed by Jim Challenger, is now available at ROGGENWOLF. Jim, a passionate bread baker himself, was frustrated by his attempts to bake in conventional dutch oven style pans, so he developed the Challenger Bread Pan. Over a long development process, and with the help of a large bread baking community and numerous test bakers, Jim optimized his bread pan to ensure it delivers optimal baking results.

Maximum heat & steam control

The heavy cast iron lid optimally retains heat and creates a steam-rich environment – the secret to a perfect crust, airy crumb, and maximum oven spring.

Ideal for a variety of bread types

Whether it's sourdough bread, rolls, or focaccia – the spacious form and thoughtful design offer ample space for various bread sizes.

Better baking results

Thanks to its unique shape, placing proofed dough is made easier than with a traditional Dutch oven. The low sides facilitate the handling of delicate dough, and the domed lid encloses just the right amount of steam and circulates it back to the bread.

Easier handling – Thoughtful design

Thanks to the side handles, the Challenger Bread Pan is easy to transport and safe to handle – even with oven mits. The low rim minimizes the risk of burns.

Durability & Quality – Made in USA

From its inception, the Challenger Bread Pan has been 100% made in the USA. Crafted from solid cast iron, it will endure a lifetime with proper maintenance – a sustainable acquisition for enthusiastic home bakers.

Tip: Since cast iron is very heavy, be sure to use professional oven gloves for lifting the hot bread pan.

Care instructions

Cast iron should not be cleaned in the dishwasher and should not be left in water, as this will cause rust to form.

The Challenger Bread Pan is factory-seasoned with grapeseed oil. Simply wipe it with a damp cloth before first use—and the cast iron bread pan is ready to use.
The baked-on protective layer protects the cast iron from rust and provides a natural non-stick coating – for perfect baking results right from the start!

Here's how to re-season your bread baking pan:

To ensure your Challenger cast iron pan remains optimally protected, you can reseason it as needed. Here's how:

1. Cleaning: Scrub off residues thoroughly with hot water and dry the pot completely.
2. Oiling: Apply a thin layer of vegetable oil (e.g. grapeseed oil) with a kitchen towel, paintbrush or brush – inside and outside if the coating is missing.
3. Seasoning: Place the pot with the opening facing down on a wire rack and season at 250°C for approximately 1 hour. A baking tray underneath will catch any dripping oil.

All set – your Challenger Bread Pan is once again like new and ready for action!
