Hukka Design Paistokas Stone Plate

Paistokas Stone Plate

The Paistokas is a soapstone plate that comes with a cork base. With Paistokas, you can add variety to your cooking and theatricality to your serving. By heating a soapstone plate in the oven and then placing the plate on the cork base. You can even cook a steak on the Paistokas. This allows for careful cooking, as the stone cooks at its own temperature and there is no need to have a heat source underneath it, such as when cooking meat, which could cause the steak to cook unevenly.

When our ancestors migrated to the area that is now Finland, they started using soapstone for fireplaces, cooking utensils and religious objects. Read more about Hukka Design from this link.
