Customer Needs to Get the Stink Out of Her Stone!

[KimmyDarling]

Hi, y'all. I got the following email from a customer. Any ideas?

"Goodness, I screwed up.

I left my fluted barware in the sink to soak, and the kids ended up piling dirty dishes all over it. It smells like TRASH.

Can I soak something in it to remove the smell.??? It's icky! And I've just mastered Paula Deen's Chocolate Chip Pound Cake."

Yesterday there were posts about using baking soda paste to remove sticky stuff from stones... I would think that would be the best thing to start with but I am just going from what others posted.

I had a customer with bad fish odor on hers (long story). I suggested she try the biscuit trick. I told her to COVER every square inch of that stone. I also warned her it might take a few tries, but she said it worked with the first batch.

Rae, please tell me more. She should fill it with biscuits and bake them?

Yep and just throw out the biscuits. It should pull out any odors and/or lingering oils.

I will suggest that!Now, since it's the fluted pan, should she fill it with biscuits, or try to mold the dough to the sides?

 

[pamperedbecky]

I'd say try to push it into the sides and see if that helps. Good luck!

She's going to want to literally smash those biscuits into every nook and cranny, and bake them just like the directions say. Once they've cooled a bit, she'll take them out and throw them away. If any odor remains, repeat.

Y'all are the BEST! Thank you!!!!!
