Pizza Stone

Baked on a ceramic stone, breads and pizzas achieve a marvelous crustiness, like those prepared in a commercial brick oven. The dense ceramic holds heat exceptionally well, keeping oven temperatures steady (the secret to brick-oven baking). Because the ceramic is porous, it pulls moisture from the outer surface of the dough, producing a crisp crust. Recipes and instructions are included. 14" x 16". Made in the USA. A Williams-Sonoma exclusive.
