Hi Judy, for the Artisan No-Knead Pizza recipe, these are the instructions for baking: With a rack in the center, preheat the oven to 500°F to 550°F with a baking steel or stone inside. Make sure the oven is at least 500°F for a full 30 minutes before baking your pizza, in order for the steel or stone to preheat thoroughly. You don't put the broiler on until your oven has preheated and you're ready to bake, and then these are the instructions: Turn on the top broiler in your preheated oven and transfer the pie to the steel or stone. Be sure there's at least 8" of space between the surface of the pizza and the broiler. If you have an oven with the broiler on the bottom (usually in the bottom compartment of the oven), or on top in a smaller, separate compartment, make sure there's at least 8" between the broiler and the cooking surface. If there isn't, don't use the broiler. Your pizza will still be great without being broiled, though it may take a few more minutes to bake. Note that tjhis pizza recipe calls for our Bread flour. If you're looking for a recipe that calls for 00-Pizza flour, we also highly recommend our Neapolitan-Style Pizza Crust recipe, which has slightly different instructions for mixing and baking.
