Which Pan for Pizza?
Almost any type of pan can give good results, though directions for brushing with oil and sprinkling with cornmeal differ slightly with each. In fact, the use of cornmeal is not required to prevent sticking except when using a pizza stone, but a little sprinkled on the surface of any pan will give added texture to the crust. Tin-lined steel; aluminum round pizza pans or baking sheets: Generously brush the pan with olive oil. Black-finished metal baking sheets and pizza pans: Follow the manufacturer's directions for care. Lightly brush bottom and sides (if any) with olive oil. Pyrex pizza pan: Generously brush pan with olive oil. Pizza Stone: Stones require preheating in a 260ºC oven. They require no oiling but must be sprinkled with cornmeal to prevent sticking just before the pizza is transferred from the peel (paddle). The peel must also be sprinkled with cornmeal before the uncooked pizza is place on it for transfer to the heated pizza stone. When removing the hot pizza stone from the oven, be careful not to set it on a cold surface, or the stone will crack.
