Multi-purpose food preparation kit

A food product kit, for cooking, browning and crisping a rising dough rim having a first smaller uncooked size and a second larger cooked size, comprising:

• a support wall with a susceptor food support surface portion supporting said rising dough rim, the support wall elevating the susceptor food support surface portion and cooperating with the support surface portion to form a substantially enclosed cavity beneath the support surface portion;
• a susceptor ring for use above said food support surface portion having a susceptor surface facing both a top and a side of said rising dough rim, said susceptor ring having a size larger than the first uncooked size of said rising dough rim, approximately equal to the second, larger, cooked size of said rising dough rim and sized to fit within the cavity beneath the support surface portion;
• and
• said susceptor ring freely supported above said rising dough rim such that, as said rising dough rim is cooked, said rising dough rim rises and contacts said susceptor surface effective to conductively heat, brown and crisp at least a portion of said rising dough rim and is subsequently confined in size by said susceptor surface,
• wherein said susceptor ring includes a plurality of spaced-apart downwardly extending tabs and said support wall defines a plurality of spaced-apart slots to receive said tabs and to guide said tabs during cooking of said food item.
