No scrubbing required, just Grandma&#8217;s old recipe"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This typical household tip refers to cleaning burnt-on grease and soot from the bottoms of pans and pots. Baking powder (or baking soda) reacts with acid or heat and loosens encrusted dirt without tedious scrubbing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The home remedy behind this tip works as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Grandma&#8217;s recipe for shiny pans:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ingredients: 1\/2 packet of baking powder (or 2\u20133 tablespoons of baking soda), a little vinegar or lemon juice, and boiling water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Application for the inside:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sprinkle the baking powder in the pan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Add a little vinegar or lemon juice (it will start to foam up).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fill with boiling water until the crusts are covered and let it soak for about 15\u201330 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Simply wipe away the loosened residue with a soft sponge and rinse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Application for the outside\/bottom:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mix baking soda with a little water to form a thick paste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spread it onto the bottom of the pan, briefly spray with vinegar, and let it sit for 30 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wipe and rinse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Important note regarding materials: This trick works perfectly on stainless steel, enamel, and cast iron. Be careful with coated Teflon pans and never scrub, as this can damage the non-stick coating. Uncoated aluminum pans may tarnish or become discolored by the vinegar and baking soda.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This typical household tip refers to cleaning burnt-on grease and soot from the bottoms of pans and pots.
