Question: What keeps pizza from sticking to a pizza stone?
I just purchased a pizza stone. It says to season it with oil, but everyone I talk to says NO OIL. So, what keeps the pizza from sticking to it and how do I season it with no oil?

Dust it with corn meal

The oil seasoning isn't really too prevent sticking. It is used to temper the stone itself, and allow it too heat more evenly. But as the other people said, dust it with corn meal. If your making pizza, you need a big wooden paddle to stretch the dough on. Make the whole pizza on the paddle. Then place the paddle on the stone, with a quick shaking motion allow the pizza to catch on the stone. Just as it starts to slide off the paddle quickly slide the paddle out of the oven.
If you don't have a wood paddle, try the backside of a large metal pan with corn meal on it to make your pizza on. It still needs to slide off. I love my stone, but pizza definately needs a lot of practice to get right on it.



maybe some cornmeal might prevent the dough from sticking
