Sources & scope
- Reference: Reynolds parchment is rated to 425°F and must not touch an open flame or oven sides.
- Reference: Covered vessels trap the loaf's own steam; handling boiling-water steam pans is a burn hazard.
- Reference: Steam methods need long mitts and thermal-shock precautions; water splashed onto hot glass can break it.
