One of my customers just called me and asked a question I cannot find the answer to. One of her PC recipes calls for using a stoneware brick. She said the recipe is made with cake mix. Does anyone know what the Stoneware Brick is?

Thanks,
Debbie :confused:
 
We don't sell a Brick, haven't in the 15 1/2 years I've been with the company. l
 
Sorry, I haven't either and I had catalogs back to 1992. Maybe she can give us the recipe to look up and see. Did she tell you what book or the recipe name. Let me know and we can all check it out . ;)
 
Maybe it's the loaf pan? I suppose loaves sorta look like bricks! LOL!!

Actually to be honest with you, the loaf pan was the first thing I thought of. I asked her what the recipe was because I was going to just look up the recipe. She was calling me from her cell phone and she couldn't remember. She wasn't mad she just sounded a little agitated because she acted as if PC had it's own lingo for their products that only consultants know. Well she was making recipe today, and she was going to use a cake pan. I just hope it works out for her.

Thanks for the input,
Debbie :) :) :)
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best way to prepare the stoneware for baking a brick recipe?

To prepare your stoneware for baking, preheat your oven as recommended in the recipe. Before placing the dough in the stoneware, ensure it is clean and dry. You can lightly oil the surface if desired, but it's often not necessary as stoneware has natural non-stick properties.

How do I prevent my brick recipe from sticking to the stoneware?

To prevent sticking, make sure your stoneware is well-seasoned. If you're using it for the first time, consider applying a thin layer of oil before baking. Additionally, using parchment paper can help ensure easy removal of the baked goods.

What temperature should I use for baking a brick recipe in stoneware?

The temperature for baking will depend on the specific recipe you are following. However, most brick recipes recommend a temperature between 350°F to 425°F. Always refer to your recipe for the exact temperature and adjust as needed based on your oven's performance.

How do I clean my stoneware after baking a brick recipe?

After baking, allow the stoneware to cool completely. To clean, simply scrape off any food residue with a plastic scraper or a soft sponge. Avoid using soap as it can absorb into the stoneware; instead, rinse with hot water and let it air dry.

Can I use my stoneware for recipes other than bricks?

Absolutely! Stoneware is versatile and can be used for a variety of recipes, including casseroles, breads, and desserts. Just be sure to adjust cooking times and temperatures as needed for different types of dishes.
