Over time any cooking tool can lose the muster it once had as stains set in and the normal shine gets covered up. Instead of going out and repurchasing the same things whenever they get too worse for wear, did you know there’s a few simple solutions you can make at home that will completely clear it all up?
Here’s a few that you can put together that will make your baking dishes look brand new again, but make sure you pick the right combination for the right dish type!
Glass or Pyrex Dishes Look Grimy?
– Liquid Dish Soap
– Baking Soda
– Water
– Aluminum Foil
– Old Toothbrush
This one is relatively simple to do for how much of a pain it is to remove these types of stains normally, and you’ll kick yourself for never doing it before. All you need to do is to take a toothbrush, dip it into the dish soap and then into some baking soda; after that you simply rub it on in a circular motion and allow it to dry for 20-30 minutes. When that’s done you scrub it off with some crumpled aluminum foil and voila!
Stainless Steel Cookie Sheets
– Hydrogen Peroxide
– Baking Soda
– Rough Scrubbing Pad
This one makes life incredible simple because after assembling the concoction any gunked up crap just comes right off. All you need to do is spread some baking soda in/on the sheet, then some hydrogen peroxide, then some more baking soda and you leave it be for a couple hours. You’ll be amazed how easily everything gets clean!
OR
– Paper Towels- Water- Baking Soda- Aluminum Foil
Spread the baking soda out with a little bit of water and a paper towel – just enough to make a paste. After that you’ll just need to scrub it down with some crumpled aluminum foil!
Aluminum Trays
– Water
– Distilled White Vinegar
– A Cooking Pot
– Scrubbing Pad
These pans are the biggest pain in the a** to get clean on a normal day, but luckily this homemade cleaner will make it as simple as 1-2-3! Just boil equal parts water and white vinegar and wait for it to cool; when that’s done you simply scrub the pan down with the homemade cleaner and a scrubbing pad!
