Salt, a staple in every kitchen, can be a powerful cleaning agent for rescuing the back of your frying pans. Here are a few methods to utilize salt for cleaning:
Salt and Sugar Scrub: Combine salt with sugar and apply the mixture to the dampened area in need of 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:
Another approach is to use salt alone or enhance its cleaning power by spraying white vinegar over the salted area. Allow the mixture to work its magic, then scrub gently and rinse thoroughly. The combination of salt’s abrasive properties and vinegar’s acidic nature helps break down the 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 the burnt-on residue without scratching your pans. Rub the affected area and rinse well after cleaning.
Tips for Best Results:
Always allow the pan to cool completely before attempting to clean it.
Test a small area first if you’re concerned about damaging the pan’s surface.
For persistent stains, you may need to repeat the process a couple of times.
