Just scrub it again and re-season until you get it the way you want, don't be afraid to scrub it with steel wool. I would make sure to hide the pan from the roommate or hit him or her over the head with it>LOL
How to make veggie dip thicker?
You could drain it in cheese cloth, next time drain your yogurt first before making the dip. Just put your dip in cheese cloth and hang, I hang it over a wooden spoon handle that I secure with clothes pin and let it drain.

best hamburger/hot dog bun recipe?
I have made the kingarthur recipe twice and it comes out hard, had to throw it away. I have been making my bread for 30 years so it's not because I don't know how.
Now the recipe with potato sound promising. I would love to make my own hamb and hot dog buns because what we get from the store is full of chemical and I can't stand the smell when I open the bag. I will try that recipe.

Kitchen Storage the Alton Brown Way
