I got one of these for Christmas. The stone is made of granite, I see some people have a similar one. I read some reviews that said the pizza dough stuck like crazy to the stone. Any suggestions for how to prevent this without using so much flour it could possibly start a fire? Could you use parchment paper to place the pizza on the stone then slide the parchment from underneath the pizza once the dough has set, possibly after a few seconds? Given the high temperature, will this cause a fire?
