The Mason Cash Innovative Kitchen Terracotta Baking & Proving Stone has unique design features that help prove and bake perfect artisan loaves and pizzas every time.  At 36.5cm long x 33cm wide x 1.5cm high the Baking Stone has a 2 in 1 function as a baking stone and eco-friendly proving lid to cover dough in mixing bowls.

Made using traditional terracotta with a grey external glaze and an unglazed interior baking surface. The unglazed interior absorbs liquid, drawing away moisture from bread dough surface and resulting in crispier crusts on loaves or pizzas.

To use as a proving lid, place the unglazed surface down on top of any 29cm or smaller mixing bowl so that it forms a seal over the bowl, allowing dough to prove for the first rising without using single use bowl covers such as cling film.

Features:

• Dimensions 36.5 x 33 x 1.5cm 
• Conventional oven safe
• Use for Pizza or as a Bread Proving Cover

Care & Maintenance:

Before using your baking stone for the first time, hand wash in warm water. To season for use in the oven: 

1. Immerse the baking stone completely in clean, warm water allowing to soak for 30 minutes. 

2. Allow to dry naturally. 

3. Rub vegetable oil onto the surface of the baking stone to coat it entirely. 

4. Place the stone into a cold oven and increase heat to 220°C. 

5. Bake the stone in the oven for 25 minutes or until the oil has dried out completely. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely and naturally. Repeat steps 2 to 5 again. 

Please note you only need to season your baking stone once. Unglazed terracotta will soak in fats and oils so will stain when seasoned. For best results, preheat the stone to the required baking temperature before placing your dough onto it in the oven. Always place the stone into a cold oven before pre-heating to the required temperature. Do not use on hobs or under grills.
