Easily Clean the Base of Pots and Frying Pans Using This Effective Method
Maintaining your kitchen cookware can be challenging, especially when dealing with pots and frying pans that have accumulated a blackened crust from direct flames or heavy use. This is particularly true for non-stick or induction cookware, where aggressive scrubbing can damage the delicate surfaces. Given the investment in quality cookware, it’s important to clean them with care.
Here’s a simple and effective technique to clean the base of your pots and pans using common household items:
Using Salt for a Sparkling Clean
Salt, a kitchen staple, can be a powerful cleaning agent for removing burnt-on residue from the base of your frying pans. Here are a few methods to utilize salt for cleaning:
Salt and Sugar Scrub: Mix salt with sugar and apply the mixture to the dampened area that needs cleaning. After applying, spray a little water over the mixture and let it sit for a few minutes. Gently scrub with a sponge afterward.
Salt and Vinegar Treatment: Sprinkle salt directly onto the affected area. For enhanced cleaning power, spray white vinegar over the salted area. Allow the mixture to work its magic, then gently scrub and rinse thoroughly. The salt’s abrasive properties combined with the vinegar’s acidity help break down grime.
Sponge Soak Method: Soak a sponge in lukewarm water, add a drop of dish detergent, and sprinkle with fine salt. This creates a gentle yet effective scrubbing pad that can loosen burnt-on residue without scratching your cookware. Rub the affected area and rinse well after cleaning.
