Super Peel Giveaway CONTEST CLOSED, WINNER HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED

This is a Super Peel. It is one of those products, like the Danish Dough Whisk, that changes the game for baking with our dough. I was skeptical that this cloth-covered peel would do the trick of transferring our wet dough onto the hot stone in the oven without sticking. I’ve come to use parchment to guarantee the dough won’t stick to the peel, but that’s not at all necessary with the Super Peel. Even after an 1 1/2 hour resting time the dough slid right off the cloth, no sticking, no prying it off with a dough scraper. Voila! The most exciting part is that it scoops the loaf off the hot stone with as much ease. No more chasing the loaf to the back of the oven while trying to get it back on the peel.

Now that we are heading into grilling season, and there is nothing better than pizza on the grill, you have to watch this video about using the Super Peel for transferring pizzas. Gary Casper invented the Super Peel and generously shared the Peel with me to try out. I loved it so much I asked him to do a giveaway so we could share one with you. *Leave a note in the comments below and you will be eligible to win a Super Peel. The winner is: Sandy! We’ll be in touch, Sandy.

I used a Banneton to shape this loaf. It was a beautiful loaf, but not a true test of the super peel, since the dough does all of its rise in the basket, so it is only sitting on the peel for a few minutes before heading into the oven. The next one I made sat for 1 1/2 hours and it still slid right off.

I slashed the dough with a lame (pronounced laam), which slid right through the wet dough. We say to use a serrated knife, but if you’re a kitchen gadget type, you may want to give a lame a try. The one I used is made from black walnut and was a gift from Sarah, but you can get a lame that work just as well, but aren’t as fancy.

To successfully use the Super Peel just dust the cloth with flour, set your loaf on it, let it rise for the specified amount of time. This loaf sat for 1 1/2 hours and still slid right off, no sticking.

Slash the loaf and then use the Super Peel to easily slide the loaf onto the Baking Stone. The peel comes with instructions on how to assemble (easy) and how to use it (also very easy) to slide the loaf or pizza off the peel and how to them simply scoop it back up. It is a very clever system that reminds me of the deck oven loaders I used in culinary school. When I saw this peel it was a “why didn’t I think of that?” moment. So simple, but so effective.

Once the loaf is baked, just put the peel up against the loaf and the cloth will pull it back onto the peel. You have to see the videos to believe it.

The use of the banneton gives the loaf a beautiful ringed look. Once you are comfortable with our basic recipe it is fun to play with some of these kitchen toys to get a different look to your loaves. None of these things are necessary to get a great loaf, but some make the process easier or just more fun!

  1. I have been wanting the super peel for a long time! I love making bread and pastries and I think the super peel would be a great tool to have in my kitchen!

  2. Hmmmmm…. Using the friction of a sticky dough to easily pick it up and transfer to another location and place it precisely. Exo may have solved the riddle of the Ancient Pyramids and Easter Island! Something to consider over a piping hot pizza, with all the toppings in place…

  3. Just began bread baking over the last four months or so and love your recipe for five-minute artisan bread…one-income family moved to the country almost two years ago and working on becoming more self-sufficient…slowly trying to add more baking equipment to my kitchen to achieve the goal of baking all goods…would absolutely love to add this peel to my kitchen–don’t have one yet…

  4. When does this contest end?

    I’ve heard nothing but good reviews for the Super Peel since it came out. Someone is going to be a seriously happy bread baker. Thank you for the opportunity!

  5. I have 6 kids and we eat homemade pizza every week. The Super Peel would make this mom’s job a whole lot easier!

    1. Hi Brenda,

      You would love it!! You can just give them all a wad of pizza dough, and fetch the pies once they have finished building their masterpieces! It is a great pizza party tool!

      Gary

  6. Love it! I too use parchment to ensure dough doesn’t stick during transfer. Would love to win this new product!

  7. Your gluten free bread is amazing. I have been using your bread recipes since your first book came out. However, I have a friend who is gluten intolerant and cannot eat bread that I usually bake. I recently tried your recipe, made the bread for him and he said, “finally, gluten free bread that tastes like bread.” Well done.

  8. The super peel looks great. My daughter and I make pizza once a week. I use parchment paper to make an easy transfer but then have to take it out to make sure the crust Browns nicely.

  9. How clever! My husband would love one of these because that would mean that I could make pizza! (He’s mastered the shake-the-dough-off-the-peel while I haven’t)

  10. I would absolutely LOVE one of these! I make pizza on our grill year round and it would be absolutely wonderful to have this in my kitchen!

  11. Sounds like we all could use a Super Peel…nice that there are some many people baking their own bread even without a peel!

  12. Super Peel would really help my bread and pizza baking. I typically use parchment, then bake on a stone with the parchment for 5 mins and then open the oven to remove the parchment. But with a typically home oven, the temp drops dramatically and disrupts the baking process. Would love to try this Super Peel soon!

  13. I have always used parchment to bake my bread and pizza on a Lodge cast iron pizza stone. Love to try baking without it

  14. I am new for baking bread and I do think that is good to have a useful tools to help me bake and discovery baking bread also can be fun

  15. I love this idea. It sounds so great. I bake bread a lot and really find this helpful. Pray I win!!

  16. I just received a signed copy of The New Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day book and would love a Super Peel!!

  17. This intrigues me that it works the way it does. I would love to add this to my kitchen arsenal! Thanks!

  18. What a great invention! Looks a lot easier than shaking the peel like a crazy man with my head in the oven as my eyebrows singe! 🙂

  19. Cool gadget! The lame tool also looks interesting. Wonder if the blade needs replacement over time.
