I'm going to try this recipe with a steaming technique I recently read about using lava rocks (that I purchased in a hardware store for gas grills). You put one of those aluminum rectangular or pie pans filled with lava rocks beneath the baking stone during the preheat. When ready to bake the bread, pour 1/4 cup boiling water on the preheated rocks. Close oven door for 1 minute to create steam. Then place the bread on the stone and pour another 1/4 cup boiling water over the rocks. Bake bread as usual. I can’t wait to try this with this recipe. Wish me luck!
