'How to Make Reusable Wax Wrap Food Covers (My New Method!)'

'This is a new and improved version of my homemade reusable wax wrap food covers. I absolutely love these food wraps. They are a perfect way of replacing plastic cling wrap and this new improved version is much quicker if you don’t want to cover all surfaces in your oven!  You will need: - Covered and protected ironing board. I used a large piece of wood which I covered in many layers of newspaper. - Either beeswax granules (http://amzn.to/1OkqpxL) or for my friends who are vegan, I use soy wax. If you can’t get granules you can melt the wax. Pour into a square block shaped container to set. Once set finely grate which makes melting super easy and fast. - Cotton Fabric that has been washed and ironed to remove any wrinkles works the best. - Several sheets of Baking Paper/Parchment Paper: http://amzn.to/1lxqOpG - Electric iron set to hot.  Basically, all you do is cover working surface or ironing board with lots of protective paper. On top of protective paper, place a sheet of baking paper bigger than pre-cut fabric. Lay fabric down on top of baking paper. Sprinkle a fine layering of wax down on top of fabric. Place another piece of baking paper on top wax layered fabric. Slowly and with care, run hot iron over the above. Continue working until wax has fully melted.  With care, lift off top layer of baking paper and check to see that all wax has melted into the fabric - which incidentally will have gone all the way through to the other side. Gently lift up fabric and allow for excess wax to drip off onto the top of the base baking paper and to cool and set. This takes a few moments. When set and firm, place between sheets of baking paper just in case they stick to each other. When I do mine now, my neighbour comes and helps, which makes the process quicker. Place another piece of fabric down on top of the dripped and excess wax. Top with baking paper and start the whole process over again. I found that I could repeat process without adding additional wax several times before reapply more wax.  To clean sheets between use, I simply give mine a nice warm soapy wipe on both sides and place outside on the line for a good airing.  If you find that the wraps need replenishing or recoating, ensure they are clean and repeat above process, or iron off wax. To do this, simply place fabric between sheets of newsprint paper and continue ironing until wax lifts off, just as you would if you were baking!
