Ah I've seen that video before though it was a fair few years ago now. What you described isn't quite whats in the video. For one you're using a silicon treated paper while he's using a parchment paper, you notice that he says there's no difference in which side is placed down? that's because neither side has been treated/coated (he mentions a waxy feel but that's just from the material not a coating.)
And here's where we find our biggest stumbling block for people making wet palettes when they are getting advice from people in different countrys. Different papers have different names, and sometimes properties in different countries. For example pretty much everybody in America advises using baking parchment but that was really hit and miss in the
uk as nearly all baking parchments here were coated with silicon. What we needed to use was baking paper, but as I mentioned in my first post this has since changed and now both baking parchment and baking paper are near universaly silicon coated. You can still find some uncoated papers if you're lucky! But odds are if you go to your local shop the baking paper you find there is gonna be silicon coated.
My pallet works and lasts about a month before going mouldy (if it’s not forgotten)
I’ve worked in a bakery (Tesco), my dad owned one in Ireland and I had to ask him what baking parchment was, so I know thing or two about different papers and how they react in a 250*C deck oven
I had a small roll of silicon lined baking paper left which was bought from Tesco and it worked, there was no you have to use a certain paper
Btw the country flag next to the username is forum pinpointing where you ip address is, mine will change when I get back to the
UK
