comment How can I tell when the wax has been removed from citrus fruit?
@ChrisSteinbach that was something of a joke. I boiled an apple once and it turned white from melting wax. You probably don't want a boiled lemon.

You can always boil it. Melts the wax right off.

comment Should patina be burned (wok seasoning)
Is it true here that, just like cast iron, bumpy/lumpy seasoning leads to cracking and uneven heating?

comment Fixing Sticky Seasoning on Cast-Iron Pan
Gah. The last time I tried salt, it completely decimated my seasoning. This is a new pan with a single layer. It already has bubbles from previous attempts. I have to start over ... thanks...

comment Repairing the Seasoning on a Cast Iron Pan
That's what I ended up doing. I did indeed get a lumpy/uneven season. I'll try sanding it down. The old seasoning was from the manufacturer, so, go figure :)

comment Repairing the Seasoning on a Cast Iron Pan
Yes, precisely. I know I can restrip and reseason from scratch, but that's a lot of energy usage, so if there's a way to just patch my seasoning, I would prefer that.

No worries. I didn't mention it on purpose -- nor did I DV any of the answers that mentioned this.

Thanks @Jay, that's what I gathered from reading some related questions. Erring on the side of undercooked, plus a thick layer, seems to be the trick.

comment What can I do with ginger syrup?
@Jefromi really? That's surprising. I got a pretty good slap in the face when I had a question that smelled like a "what can I do with ..." question. Good to see things are changing.

comment How to bake a chicken?
I'm curious to know why you let the chicken sit outside for two hours before baking it. I usually put mine straight from defrosting into marinade then into the oven.

comment How can I get brownies to bake evenly?
You can always invest in a convection oven. The fan tends to even out the temperature a bit more.

@Mien I don't believe the baking tin size was mentioned.

@rfusca I want to soften up an already existing brick. I would like to know what I did wrong so I don't do it again.

I tried dunking it in my tea before eating it, but it didn't soften it up much.
