Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Old Stone Oven 4444 Pizza for Two 8 1/2 Inch Round Pizza Stones
Customer Review: We love our pizza stones!
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased these stones when I was trying to come up with something that my sweetie and I can make together since I'm a vegetarian and he is not. It was a great idea, we can make them together and both get exactly what we want. We have had a lot of fun perfecting our his-and-her pizza recipes from our own crispy crust recipe to our proprietary cheese blend :)
I've owned Pampered Chef stones in the past and find these to be more durable and a heck of a lot cheaper. I wouldn't waste my money on Pampered Chef stones. These stones are a great value, I am very pleased.
Despite the no-fatty-foods warning, we did put oil on the stones once to see how it affected the crust - it didn't smoke or smell or do any damage to the stones...it basically just soaked in. The included crust recipe is fantasic for a crusty-crust and, of course, it is the perfect size for two pizzas. With just a tiny bit of corn meal on the stones there is no sticking problem.
The instructions say to assemble the pizzas and then move them to the stones, which is messy and destructive. We assemble ours on the stones.
We have enjoyed our stones so much that we've given them for birthday gifts and bridal shower gifts. Seriously, can you think of a better bridal shower gift than pizza stones for two???
Description of Old Stone Oven 4444 Pizza for Two 8 1/2 Inch Round Pizza Stones
A baking stone for home oven use reminiscent of the stone baking ovens of earlier times. Over 30 years ago the Old Stone Oven Company first introduced the baking store for home use and it is still the best. Thicker than other stones available, it has a porosity and heat retention that is perfect for a good crust. The Old Stone Oven Pizza Stone duplicates crispy pizzeria quality pizza - crust and all- in a standard kitchen oven. The Stone can also be used to bake bread, rolls and biscuits giving them a very special texture and quality or as a warming tray to keep waffles, pancakes, fried chicken, etc warm until ready to serve.Professional pizza and traditional European bread ovens are often lined with stone or brick. This is so heat is stored up and redistributed evenly. The resulting blast of heat from the Old Stone Oven Pizza for Two baking stones gives bread and pizza a nice chewy crust. The rustic French tarts called galettes are also well suited to a baking stone. To use the stone, place it in a cold oven and preheat to 500 degrees for pizza, or according to the recipe for bread or galettes. The stone is made of the same material that lines blast furnaces and kilns, so it can handle ultra-high temperatures.
Wait until the baking stones are entirely cooled before attempting to clean them. Let them dry completely before using again. Some discoloration will occur over time; this is natural and will not affect baking. Using baking parchment may help delay that discoloration. Do not bake cookies, turnovers or other high-fat items on the stones; the stone would absorb the fat and proceed to produce smoke and bad odors. The stones come with a flyer that contains detailed use and cleaning instructions, as well as recipes for bread, pizza dough, and two pizza toppings. --Garland Withers
