Do any people here make their own pizza? If so, here's a tip:

There's no way you can get a good crust in a home oven using those perforated aluminum pans. You need a stone, and it should be about 3/4" thick. The cheap ones sold in Target, etc., are worthless. The good ones cost $60 and up on the Web. BUT...

Flooring and tile stores often have remnant Saltillo stones that are the right size (14 -16" square) and thickness. You can get one for $3 or less if they have one. Heat it in the oven at 200 degrees for several hours to break it in. Let it cool, then heat it at 450 for an hour before you're ready to make your pie. Makes a perfect crust. Don't wash it afterward--just scrape it off.

DO NOT BUY A GLAZED STONE!!! They can give off toxic fumes if heated.


Ntra la porta tua lu sangu � sparsu,
E nun me mporta si ce muoru accisu...
E s'iddu muoru e vaju mparadisu
Si nun ce truovo a ttia, mancu ce trasu.
