I use baking soda and do hear those reviews about lye

If you use lye, be aware that it will leave discolorations on your pans or sheets.
I use lye and it does leave a really nice glossy crust to them.

My wife is still pissed about the pretzel shapes on all the new cookie sheets.

I can't wait til I have something to contribute to this thread.

Use parchment.... It avoids that problem.

Where did you buy the lye? Why was it difficult to type 'buy the lye'?

First, haha!

Bought at AAA chemicals, Food Grade Sodium Hydroxide. A single 2# container ($7) will last a long time, but if you want a visit from Homeland Security try buying a barrel.

Well, let's turn this into a "what are you cooking now" thread.

It's a cold, rainy day here in Toledo. I've got a 3lb pot roast slowly cooking away, and some wheat bread dough rising.

You don't slash you loafs? I find I get better oven spring.
Funny you have my stove.

Beautiful pizza and bread

Man oh man that pizza looks good, ChefRex! I got a new cast iron pan and used it yesterday for the first time making a Hawaiian pizza. Didn't even think to take pictures, but I have some extra pizza dough and sauce in the freezer for sometime soon to make another.
