Default Pizza stone

I've got a pizza stone, which makes the most delicious pizzas.
(ActuaIly, my SO makes them usually!) I used to make the dough myself,
but in the end it was easier to get a base ready made from the
supermarket.

I was wondering what else might be good to make on the stone?

Cheers
Jon

Anything dough-based, i.e. bread and pizza. It depends on what you are
looking for. If you want a crisp base with an evenly cooked top, you
want to use a stone. Usually with bread you do not want a crispy base,
but sometimes you do.

Pizzas and calzones are probably the main things you want to use the
stone for.

You can just leave it in the oven to help even out temps and keep the temp
up when you open the oven door.

Not for cooking, but holding food in oven proof dishware. Heat at low
until it comes to temp, shut off the oven and put the food in.
