Deep Cleaning Stoneware: Baking Soda Paste Method

In summary, to make a baking soda paste for deep cleaning stoneware, mix equal parts of baking soda and water in a bowl until it forms a thick paste. This method can be used on all types of stoneware, including glazed and unglazed stoneware, but not on stoneware with a non-stick coating. Let the paste sit on the stoneware for at least 30 minutes, or up to an hour for tougher stains. A regular kitchen brush or sponge can be used to scrub the stoneware, as long as it is non-abrasive. This method is safe for use on stoneware with tough stains or discoloration, as it will help to break them down and leave

Does anyone know what the 'deep cleaning method' for Stoneware is?
I thought I remember something about baking soda paste?????


TIA - Jenna
 
Make a paste of baking soda and water and rub gently.
 
Yes - letting it soak in the paste for 10-15 minutes will help too. On a side note, another "deep cleaning" method is to put it in the dishwasher with NO soap. This will remove residue, but not the coloring.

Although I wouldn't spread this around at shows b/c some have been known to break this way and it would void out the warrantee on it.

It is not recommended to put stoneware in the dishwasher, ever. The heat changes and high pressure water can create miniscule cracks in the stone that fill with water. These cracks may then cause product failure during a subsequent use.
 
Hmmmm, I've even talked to the test kitchens about this way and they agreed about it cleaning off the residue. I suppose I understand that they do have to caution against it.
