In recent years,with the development of silicone products, more and more silicone products are used in kitchen,such as silicone bakeware, however, it’s troublesome for people to clean the silicone kitchen products, they seem like they should be easy to clean, but somehow, there never seems to be a way to get rid of that oily residue. We went to the experts to find out just how you should be cleaning those flexible pans.
Here are similar suggestions for how to really get silicone bakeware clean:
1. You don't need anything special (except elbow grease).
You need two things to really clean your silicone bakeware: hot water and grease-cutting dish soap, this is one of those situations where the all-natural stuff might not cut it. You'll need something that will really tackle that oil. And for the water, we're talking as hot as you can stand. Now would be a good time to break out those rubber gloves if you don't normally wear them. When you have those two things, start scrubbing — and don't be surprised if it takes more than one wash. The good news is that, if you have a dishwasher,which is safe and useful, Just be sure to check before you toss it in, and when in doubt, put it on the top rack.
2. Heat is your friend.
If you have bits of muffin or casserole that ended up a crispy mess on your bakeware, the key to getting them off is actually more heat. Put the silicone pan in the oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes, and then soak it in really hot water. This should loosen things enough that you can get the bits and pieces off.
3. For really tough jobs, use baking soda.
When you've followed all the other steps, but you still have an oily film, there's only one place to turn, making a thick paste with baking soda and water and applying it to the sticky spots. Leave the paste to dry, and then wash it away with more hot water and dish soap."
4. And here's what not to do.
The one thing you should skip? Abrasives. Don't be tempted to tackle that Silpat with a scrubby sponge. Not only will not help you clean the pan, but you might damage it in the process. You can end up causing pieces of the silicone to flake off, it can remove the nonstick properties of the pan.
5. Know this one tip to avoid bad build-up.
And to prevent greasy buildup in the future, skip the cooking sprays. You don't really need them since the pan is nonstick already, and it will just make for a sticky mess later.
