Returning the shine to cookware
FOR many, white vinegar is a bane.
In fact, most mothers would stop their children from consuming preserved foods, claiming that the vinegar would “eat” into their stomachs.
However, in the culinary world, white vinegar is hailed as a life-saver, especially when dealing with blackened and dull cookware.
White vinegar, even the cheapest in the market, is handy for getting the shine back onto pots and pans.
Make sure your cookware is cool before proceeding with the following. Pour enough vinegar to cover the surface of the pot or pan and let it soak for about half-an-hour. For the sides of the pot, pour some vinegar onto a scouring pad. Lightly rub the sides of the pots and pans for two to three minutes.
You will find bits of brownish stuff coming off the surface. Wash out the vinegar and wipe your cookware dry. You will find the cleaned surface shining like new.
