I just received my Old Stone Pizza Stone! What a joy. It arrived in perfect condition! I have been turning out the most beautiful bread with it! It is easy to use and it has no offensive odour, and it doesn't stain easily either. It worked well with a layer of Parchment paper or with Loaf pans. The bread comes out with a deeper browned crust... and so beautifully baked. I really am pleased with results this Stone is giving me. Just a note, and I could be wrong, but I found that with a pan of water and the stone it confuses the computer if you are using True Convection. I think that the Stone sets up its own convection because the result is the same either with convection (without the stone) or the stone. Takes the same amount of time and the result seems tastier, more finished with the Stone. Alternately, I wonder if I had the stone too high in the oven and it split the oven in two! The moment I put the bread on straight bake, the oven settled down and indicated the correct temperature, within seconds. In any case, the Stone gives you lots of room for Batardi, for Boules and for loaf pans and a nice big Pizza. Just don't put anything greasy on it. So if your product has any quantity of oil put it on a Parchment paper or use a pan. And heat your Stone up with the oven, don't put it in a hot oven cold, and don't try to cool it down in sink water, and above all don't use dish soap on it. Treat like the worker it is and it will serve you well and kiss your bread to goodness. It is great investment for your baking, you'll be pleased! Old Stone Oven 14-Inch by 16-Inch Baking Stone

I go through a stone every couple years-they eventually crack and break from being jostled around in the oven and kitchen. This is my first rectangular one, and I like it a lot better than the round ones. It gives a little extra room to work, and fits nicely on my oven rack. I broke an oven glass with a round stone when it worked its way forward and banged into the glass when I closed the oven.I have used this stone so far for pizza and bread, and both turned out well. As with all stones, it needs some time to get hot- I usually leave it in the oven for an hour or so before baking anything on it. I also never clean the stone, just scrape off any burned residue with a metal spatula. Other than that, no maintenance at all.The stone was shipped in enough packing peanuts to protect a small space shuttle, and arrived safely. Thank goodness I opened it outside-I'd much rather have the peanuts blow around my yard than my house.OK, as promised- my pizza dough recipe.I use a Kitchenaide mixer, although I have kneaded this dough by hand many times- no big deal. Just remember when you knead dough, you want to get air into the dough, so keep folding in over onto itself.In a large bowl or mixer:1.5 cups warm water1 package dry yeast1 tsp olive oil1/2 tsp salt (or less-stimulates the yeast)1/2 tsp brown sugar (or less- just enough to get the yeast awake)1 heaping tablespoon gluten4 cups Caputo "00" flourStart with the warm water, and add in the salt, sugar, olive oil and yeast. Mix for a minute or so on high speed, and then let sit for about 10 minutes. This allows the yeast to "bloom". Next add 1 cup of flour and the gluten. Allow to mix for a few minutes- until the mixture is alive with air bubbles and smooth. Begin adding the rest of the flour, slowly while mixing. I don't really measure flour, I just keep adding it until the dough comes together. I like to leave the dough a little soft and sticky- it makes a better crust. Let the dough knead for five minutes or so, and then turn into an oiled bowl. Let rise for an hour or so.Break off a ball of dough about the size of a softball and place on a floured surface. Since I like to keep the dough soft, you can't really toss it in the air like the pizza places- I just roll it out with a rolling pin. Depending on how soft and sticky your dough is, you will need to sprinkle flour on both sides of it as your roll. After you have it rolled out, fold a 1/2 inch or so lip around the edge over to make a crust.Place the rolled dough on a peel sprinkled with corn meal to keep it from sticking, and brush the top with olive oil. Put whatever toppings you desire on, and slide into the oven on the stone. I don't put anything on the stone. Sliding the dough from the peel to the stone can take a little practice, but is easy after you get the hang of it. Make sure the pizza slides on the peel before you attempt to place it in the oven- gently work a spatula under any sticking areas.Cook for about 5-10 minutes at the hottest temp your oven has. Bake time depends on the dough and your oven. If you are adding mozzarella, wait until the dough is just about done before adding it. I typically remove the pizza from the oven to add the cheese- this way you can keep the door closed so the oven does not cool down.Enjoy. FYI- Gluten is available online and in some stores. It gives the pizza that chewy "east-coast" texture craved by serious pizza connoisseurs. This will make about 4 pizzas, but just increase the amount of water you start with to increase the recipe yield. You can double (or more) this recipe without adding any more sugar, salt, or oil. You can substitute regular flour for the "00" flour, but the "00" flour is fantastic-try it at least once. It is available from Amazon and many Italian food stores.Mange!
