Unicook Small Pizza Stone 10.25 Inch for Oven and Grill

Unicook's pizza stone offers an exceptional solution for crafting delectable pizzas with a crisp crust that are sure to impress your family and friends. These versatile stones can be used in both home ovens and outdoor grills, allowing you to bake not just pizzas, but also breads, cookies, biscuits, and a variety of other items.

To achieve the perfect pizza using the Unicook pizza baking stone, it is recommended to preheat the stone before placing the dough. Begin by positioning the stone in your oven or grill and preheating it to 500°F (260°C) for approximately 30 minutes. This step ensures the stone is thoroughly heated, enabling it to effectively draw out moisture from the dough, resulting in a crispy, golden-brown crust.

Next, lightly dust the bottom of your pizza dough with flour to create a non-stick surface. Carefully transfer the prepared pizza onto the preheated stone using a well-floured pizza peel. Close the oven or grill and allow the pizza to bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Remember to check the pizza halfway through the cooking process to ensure it is not overheated.

Once the crust has turned a rich, brown color, you can safely remove the pizza from the stone and enjoy your delicious creation. It's important to note that a well-used pizza stone often develops dark, discolored areas, which is a normal sign of natural seasoning and improved performance.

Proper care and maintenance of your Unicook pizza stone are essential for optimal performance. After each use, allow the stone to cool completely before cleaning. Use a scraper, brush, or nylon pad to remove any excess food particles, then hand wash the stone with warm water. For deeper stains, you can create a cleaning solution by mixing baking soda and water. Be sure to dry the stone thoroughly in the oven before storing it in a clean and dry place.

It's important to note that you should never season the pizza stone with oil or grease, as this can affect the natural non-stick properties that develop with regular use. Additionally, avoid using soap or detergents, as they may impart unwanted flavors to your food. Caution should also be exercised when handling a hot pizza stone, as it can break if bumped or dropped.

The Unicook pizza stone is designed to be durable, with a cordierite construction that can withstand temperatures up to 1,450°F (787°C). Its porous structure efficiently distributes heat, drawing out moisture from the dough and creating a crispy, restaurant-quality crust. The versatile 10.25-inch diameter size is perfect for cooking personal-sized pizzas, as well as other baked goods.

Included with the Unicook pizza stone is a plastic dough scraper, a multi-purpose tool that can be used as a cutter or scraper on the cool stone surface. The product is shipped in a sturdy box with foam and cardboard inserts to ensure safe delivery, making it an excellent gift option for your family and friends.
