Dear all, I try for many months now to buy a stone for baking bread. They did not exist in Greece until recently, where I found someone who imports them from Italy. I contacted them and they told my that the stones they sell are suitable only for gas ovens.
Does this make sense? Is there a problem with electric ovens? It is not a cheap buy so I got to know before I give the money.
Hello Antonis,
If you can find flat unglazed tile in Greece that should be fine. No reason to worry about the heat source if you buy the Italian stone though. The thicker the stone is, the longer it takes to heat up to temp.
