It's the only way I know how to make pizzeria-quality pizza in your home oven, and Baking with Steel gives you all the tools to unlock the Steel's full potential in your kitchen."― Tony Gemignani, master instructor at the International School of Pizza and author of The Pizza Bible "My Baking Steel never leaves the oven.
