Pizza
Oven ventilation is very important for even cooking. Remember to
leave at least 1" of space all around the pan or stone inside the oven.
And be sure to measure the inside of your oven. They're obviously not as
big as the outside dimensions, and some ovens, like wall ovens, are smaller
than others.
Convection ovens may brown the top too fast, so turn them to the Bake
function.
The flour you use for the crust is the most important
ingredient for great taste. We recommend a High Gluten Flour. It is usually
marketed as Bread Flour.
Meat, fish and poultry may need to be cooked before adding them
as a topping for your pizza, especially if you're cooking it on a barbecue
grill.
About Pizza Stones
Stones are high fired ceramics (usually containing fireclay, which adds
to their strength) often made of clays that are not highly refined. They can
be brown, buff or white, and commonly have some specks and some particulate
material such as sand or fine grog. Stoneware is vitreous or semi-vitreous,
but not translucent.
Engineered baking stones can be made from a variety of materials, including
certain types of concrete, with heat transfer properties similar to
clay stones. Commercially, they are used to line pizza and other baking
ovens.
In baking, stones are best used in making crispy breads. Stones impart
high, even heat, that quickly cooks the outside of the dough, and seals
the moisture inside, for more tender and more even baking.
On Using Pizza Stones
· Do not use stones to
bake items that have a significant fat content, like cookies and turnovers.
The stone would absorb the fat which, during subsequent use, will burn off,
causing smoke and an unpleasant and possibly noxious odor.
· Rough edges on stones can
be smoothed with sanding paper, an old grinding stone or piece of brick.
· Before first use, wash
the stone with water and a brush; do not use detergent, which would permeate
the surface and alter the taste of subsequently cooked foods.
· Breakage of stones will
not generally occur under normal use unless dropped or subjected to thermal
shock.
· Thermal shock occurs when
objects of substantially different temperatures come in contact with each
other. Thermal shock causes breakage that is not covered under any warranty,
so never do things like put a frozen pizza on a hot stone, or plunge a hot
stone in water - you get the picture, I'm sure.
· Staining is normal with
regular use. You can minimize it by spreading coarse corn meal over the
surface before placing dough on the stone for absorption. You can even sand
down the surface, by hand, or with a belt sander on larger stones.
· To keep pizza or bread
dough from sticking to the stone, sprinkle lots of coarse corn meal on the
preheated stone.
· Using mitts, you can
transfer the entire stone to heatproof trivets (to protect the surface)
right on your dinner table. The pizza or bread will stay hot, and you can
cut right on the surface. (I like the half-moon cutters, below.)
· There are differences
between stones. The thicker the stone, the more heat mass it produces, which
results in more uniform and somewhat quicker baking. The thinner stones are
lighter, and, to some extent, make up for their thinness with concentric or
other strategically placed feet, to redirect and store heat.
· The best way to get a
pizza onto a stone in the oven, to check its underside while baking, and to
get the pizza out of the oven after it's cooked, use a Pizza Peel (Pizza
Paddle) that is the same size, or slightly larger, than the pizza or bread
you'll be transferring to the oven. To care for a wooden peel, just keep it
dry, floured while in use, and brush cleaned. Avoid leaving wooden peels on
hot surfaces. It it warps, leave overnight with the warp facing up and it
should flatten out. If you want to seal the wood, use only food grade
mineral oil. |

Stones
· Specially formulated clay
is fired at over 2000°F, creating a surface with porosity that
is ideal for baking pizza or bread.
· For added strength, without extra weight, the underside of the
larger stones have ribs and feet.
· You can leave the stones in the oven all the time, if you like. You can even
leave them in during the oven cleaning cycle, which will burn off any stuck-on
foods. |

Fold the flattened dough in half, then in half again. Carefully transfer
it to the center of the paddle and unfold. Top with your favorite filling.
Slide the pizza from the paddle onto the pre-heated stone in the oven by
