And it needs darkness

How do you clean mold from a pizza stone or do I need to through it away?

If a pizza stone is allowed to get moldy it is probably best to just give it a toss, because removing the mold would require using harsh chemicals which would be absorbed into the porous stone. So how is it even possible for a pizza stone to get moldy in the first place? It sounds as though the pizza stone was washed with water and put away wet or damp (in a dark place) and not used for a lengthily time. Mold is a fungi that can grow on just about anything, including a pizza stone. Mold thrives in areas that are damp, humid and sheltered from sunlight. The best way to prevent mold from forming on a pizza stone is to keep the stone dry. Personally, I never wash my pizza stone. I just wait until it cools off and then brush anything that's baked on with a stiff brush. I hope this helps.
