Baking Stones
Baking Stone?
My mother has a baking stone which she said had an odd smell to it, so she washed it in bleach, which I sort of told her not to do, but it didn’t work, so she saw that you put it in the oven on the self-clean cycle and it got rid of the smell and discoloration. But I was wondering if it was still good to use because I read that you’re not even supposed to wash them in soap because it will seep in and you’ll get an aftertaste so I dont want anything to have a bleach aftertaste.
Well, she probably ruined the stone with the bleach. All you are to do with a baking stone is wash off the residue with water. Plain water. No soap. I would suggest that she set it outside in the sun. Hopefully that will rid the smell and kind of sterilize it. You might want to try baking the stone alone in a very hot oven for an hour. That may work, too.
