Np. So what is wax paper actually for? |
Calm down. Being clueless is not the same thing as trolling. |
You don't actually bake sourdough at 500F, 450F max I've seen |
It's for wrapping/separating food at room temperature or colder. Wax melts you know... |
So glad you put the question mark
The answer is No. you cannot bake with wax paper. |

I work for the EPA and can vouch that most parchment paper (and non-stick cookware and dental floss) is coated with PFAS. I use a brand of parchment called "If You Care" that can be purchased at Whole Foods or Moms Organic Market.
On a side note, if you use dental floss, look for a PFAS free brand. You do not want to be delivering PFAS directly to your mouth and gums. |

I buy this brand. It has silicon coating, not pfas.
I won’t give up parchment paper entirely We all have to die at some point. https://www.amazon.com/If-You-Care-Unbleached-Greaseproof/dp/B0BX17TCC6/ref=asc_df_B0BX17TCC6/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=693769995515&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=12498499660178894807&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9218145&hvtargid=pla-2193663403102&mcid=b71f3b5ccfd238f29637a80b0fbb6115&th=1 |
This what my southern grandmothers have been doing for years. |
Well, then don't be so dumb next time. |
It still has chemical coatings. Humans made this kind of bread in ancient Egypt, so why do we need chemical coated paper now? |
We don't Use semolina or cornmeal and pizza peel |
You are the idiot if you think 500F is a normal baking temp. Most baked goods are just fine with butter or another fat. |
You are dumb and clearly know nothing about food science and the Maillard reaction. Sourdough breads in the old world were cooked in rip roaring wood fired ovens that were well over 500F. You ain't baking a pie or cupcakes dimwit, you are making bread. You do not use butter to grease pans when you need to cook at high temp unless you want foul tasting food because your butter burnt. |
I did actually do that once! Wasn't paying attention and was just really tired... brought out the baked cookies and they were clearly not edible... Definitely haven't made that mistake twice.

Yep, you do it once and remember forever lol The smoke and smell is unforgettable (I decided not to taste cookies I baked on wax paper) |
