Using washing powder to clean oven trays?

[TastesLikePanda]

With christmas imminent I have come to the earth shatteting conclusion that my oven trays need a damn good scrubbing - sadly I am lazy so need a 'soak them overnight' plan instead?

I read something about using washing powder to soak them - does anyone know what kind and for how long? ?

Eternal gratitude in advance!

Pff - shattering not shatteting! Sausage fingers

bio powder works well, as so soda crystals.

I put the tray onto the hob, fill about half with water, sprinkle in about a cup of powder. switch on hob, bring to the boil (careful might foam) switch off and leave over night.

Bless you mousymouse!

Bio powder is great for lots of things
Try also cleaning your floors with it!

yep always used bio for oven racks etc

ive a butler sink,well the deep one anyway so easy to soak

try it and report back op

Try putting your oven racks in the bottom of the dishwasher, on a hot wash. It leaves them gleaming like new.

I LOVE tips like this, i will be trying on my mucky grill pan tonight I think
Thanks Mousy!

I have no dishwasher so will need to soak the trays in the sink - luckily I actually don't have a 'proper' oven, only a mini tabletop one so can easily fit my trays in the normal sink.

I have a butler sink in the outhouse at the bottom on the garden though - an authentic edwardian one... I soooooooo want to get in installed in the house.

get it installed mine was found in an old building,god knows how old it is

its fab,and al my kids have been bathe in it,lol
