My oven has a steam function, I can heat and steam the oven on high before putting the loaf in.
Do I still need a dutch oven?

I’m simultaneously skeptical and jealous that a home oven might have a real steam bake function like the pros.
What make and model is it?
Siemens IQ700
It’s advertised as a baking function.
Steaming function is quite common in European mid to high end ovens.
Probably not. The dutch oven is used to trap steam to allow the loaf to rise in the first part of the bake. You could probably just use a baking sheet in combination with the steam function. Let us know how the steam works out!
