Substitute for Pizza stone/steel

Mary B. (Q&A ID 11754)

Regarding the recipe for the deep dish quiche with mushrooms, bacon and gruyere: the instructions are to bake the quiche on a pizza stone or steel, neither of which I have. Is there a pan or technique I could use to help the bottom crust of the quiche crisp up as it would using the stone/steel? Thank you very much.

Hi Mary - Although it won't produce nearly as much heat, you can try placing a rimmed baking sheet in the oven while the oven is preheating and then baking the quiche on the hot sheet. Good luck! Best, The Milk Street Team
