A flat stone or ceramic surface used for baking bread and other foods, typically heated on top of a stove or fire.
Compound of 'bake' (Old English 'bacan') and 'stone' (from Old English 'stān'), describing an ancient cooking tool that predates metal pans.
Bakestones are still used in traditional cooking in Wales and Scotland for making flatbreads and pancakes—they're basically the original non-stick cookware, passed down for centuries!
