How to clean pizza stone with baking soda

Great Hacks to Clean Your Pizza Stone Dish For water-safe or non-porous pizza, stones go ahead and let your stone soak in warm water for 30 minutes before trying to scrape any food off. This will really help loosen things up. Using the backside of a sponge to scrub is better than sandpaper.

Soap and water aren't on the list because pizza stones can withstand extremely high heat, which will kill any bacteria on the stone. Plus, they retain moisture and any chemical solution because they're porous, meaning washing it in the sink as you would any other dish will lead to soggy, steamed, soapy-tasting pizza.
