I got an email from a customer yesterday asking what to do about a stone she/ someone she lives with got sun tan oil :eek: on one of her stones. Does anyone have any advice for this poor woman. She says it was right next to the cooking spray by the stove. Who knows, I did tell her to try the biscuit idea, but didnt know if there was a better way to try to de-contaminate (as she put it) the stone.
 
Scrub it with a baking soda paste, and then bake lots of biscuits...
 
In this instance you can try the baking soda paste idea ... but if she really wants it off I say use soap in this extreme instance. Then she should cook some biscuits or crescent rolls to get rid of the soap taste.

Thanks ladies, I knew I could count on you. I alsways seem to forget about the baking soda.
 
I had a customer whose small bar pan got packed away for 6 months with fish oil on it. (It's a long story involving a family emergency that came up as she was cooking the fish.) I told her the biscuit idea. She said that every trace of fish smell was gone after the second batch.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if my Pampered Chef stone has oil on it?

If your Pampered Chef stone has oil on it, you can gently wipe it down with a paper towel to remove excess oil. Avoid using soap or detergent, as this can strip the seasoning from the stone.

Can I wash my Pampered Chef stone with soap if it has oil on it?

No, you should not wash your Pampered Chef stone with soap. Soap can remove the seasoning that builds up over time and helps create a non-stick surface. Instead, simply wipe it with a paper towel or a damp cloth.

How can I prevent oil buildup on my Pampered Chef stone?

To prevent oil buildup, use a light coating of oil when cooking and avoid excessive greasing. Additionally, allow your stone to cool before cleaning it, as this can help prevent oil from becoming baked onto the surface.

Is it safe to use my Pampered Chef stone if it has oil on it?

Yes, it is safe to use your Pampered Chef stone if it has a small amount of oil on it. In fact, a well-seasoned stone may have some oil on it, which can enhance the cooking process. Just be sure to manage the oil levels to prevent excessive buildup.

What should I do if my Pampered Chef stone is sticky from oil?

If your Pampered Chef stone is sticky from oil, you can try baking it in the oven at a low temperature (around 350°F) for about 30 minutes. This can help to re-season the stone and remove some of the stickiness. Afterward, let it cool and wipe it down with a paper towel.
