BAKING STONES AND TILES

Print this Recipe




Breads baked in professional ovens are often placed directly on heavy stones to create a crisp, brown crust. You can do the same in your oven by using a bread stone, pizza stone or unglazed baking tiles available in cookware shops. Let the stone heat in the oven for at least 20 to 30 minutes. (Don’t place a cold stone in a hot oven because it may crack; new stones may need to be seasoned by heating at a low temperature once or twice before using it at high temperatures--check the directions that came with your stone.)

Sprinkle cornmeal over the stone. Carefully slide the unbaked loaf--just the dough, not dough in a bread pan--directly onto the hot stone by sliding it from a cookie sheet or using a baker’s wooden paddle called a pelle. After baking, the stone will be very hot; let it cool in the oven before moving it.
