OTOH, the spray method works just fine, and appears to produce results
indistinguishable from the pan or ice methods. I had a baking instructor
who swore by wetting and lightly wringing out a kitchen towel, and
cracking it like a whip against the back or floor of the oven, three
times, at five minute intervals. I doubt it matters too much how you do
it, as long as there is some steam at the beginning of the baking process.
