Cooking rye sourdough in silicon pans?

Hi,

do you believe that I can safely cook rye sourdough breads in a foldable silicon pan without risking meltdown, corrosions and intoxications of any kind? I ask because I don't know how such a very sour dough reacts with silicon.

 

Thanks.

sure you can!

As long as it bakes under the temperature limit.  A flat round silicone pan makes a great non-stick place to fold rye dough too!  I think you mean silicone, silicon would be a different matter.

exactly, I meant silicone ;-)

exactly, I meant silicone ;-) Actually I'm going to bake at no more than 140°C, so temperature shouldn't be an issue.

Thanks for your advises!
