How Aluminum Foil Can Breathe New Life Into Your Grimy Baking Sheets
By ETHAN HARRISON SMITH
Baking sheets become stained and discolored over time. Aluminum foil, a versatile kitchen staple, offers a surprising yet effective method for reviving the grimy sheets.
Crumpling a piece of foil into a ball turns it into an efficient scrubber that tackles the stubborn, stuck-on food residues and stains often plaguing baking sheets.
For enhanced cleaning results, soaking the baking sheets in water, drying them, and then using the aluminum foil with soap and water for scrubbing is recommended.
This technique is especially suitable for aluminized steel baking sheets but should be avoided with non-stick or aluminum varieties to prevent scratches and damage.
