Mario Batali by Dansk™ Piastra

View larger image

Chef Mario Batali is known for his culinary ventures that combine his Italian heritage with a hearty helping of creativity. His piastra is designed for cooking alla piastra - the traditional Italian method of using a flat griddle stone over a hot fire. Mario's version of this classic cooking technique is made of granite, which evenly conducts heat, much like cast iron. To use, just preheat the stone on your grill and brush lightly with oil.
