Don't rush to throw it away or buy a new one, because there is a simple and cheap way to clean it using a tea bag.
Why Tea Helps Clean a Frying Pan
Tea contains tannins, which are substances that have the ability to bind and wash away fat, protein and other impurities.
In addition, tea has a slightly acidic reaction, which helps dissolve plaque and rust.
Thus, tea acts as a gentle and effective cleaning agent that does not damage the surface of the pan.
