Hi all,

I bought some anodised aluminium roasting trays today and 'seasoned' them by coating with oil and baking as per the instructions. However, it seems I've managed to get this wrong as I used olive oil and it has left a slight sticky residue that doesn't look as if it'll shift without a wire scubber. I did a bit more research and found out that I should have used a lighter oil:mad:(really wish I'd read that BEFORE I did it!)

Any ideas of how to put this right? :o
TIA

    Soak in bio washing powder overnight, perhaps?
    Good enough is good enough, and I am more than good enough!:j

    If all else fails, remember, keep calm and hug a spaniel!

    Thanks MrsAtobe (love your name!). Tried soaking but didn't shift it so had to resort to using a green scrubby thing in the end. They seem to have survived that so I'll try to season them again tomorrow, this time with the right oil!

    Perhaps I should just stick to takeaways....:rotfl:
