You shouldn't wait until the bottom of pots, ladles, frying pans and other utensils disappears under a layer of carbon deposits.
The less dirt there is, the better the chances are that you will be able to return the dishes to their original condition.
Moreover, in order to clean pans and pots, you will only need accessible “ingredients”.
Among them are salt, soda, dishwashing liquid and an old toothbrush.
First, sprinkle salt on the bottom, then add the same amount of baking soda. Next in line is dishwashing liquid.
After all components have been applied, thoroughly brush the contaminated areas with a toothbrush and leave for a while.
The final step is to use table vinegar. Cover the bottom of the dish with a paper towel and then pour the acid over it.
All that remains is to wait for the reaction to pass – this takes about another 10-15 minutes, and then start using the brush again.
If you were unable to restore the metallic shine to the items the first time, it’s okay, just repeat the cleaning procedure again, this time increasing the amount of cleaning agents or the time of their action.
