Definición y Significado de "pizza stone"

What is a "pizza stone"?

A pizza stone, also known as a baking stone, is a flat, usually circular slab made of natural stone, ceramic, or cordierite material. It is designed to be placed in the oven and preheated before baking pizza or other baked goods. The pizza stone absorbs and distributes heat evenly, resulting in a crispy crust with a uniform texture. It helps to mimic the effects of a traditional brick oven by providing consistent and high heat, which is essential for achieving a perfect pizza crust.
