Soapstone pans and pots are handmade in Brazil and are able to withstand temperatures twice as high as cast iron and other metal cookware. Soapstone develops a natural non-stick surface and lustrous black patina finish after curing. They can be put in the oven or on the stovetop. Greenfeet sells a range of soapstone cookware. The 12″ pizza stone show here sells for $55.

Soapstone may indeed be the best material for the best pizza stone, but the one pictured isn’t it. A good pizza stone, in my opinion, doesn’t have a lip.
