Let it sit for 15-30 minutes—the natural acids and fizz will loosen burnt bits.
Using a sponge or scrub brush, scrub gently in circular motions. Most burnt spots should come off easily.
Rinse thoroughly with warm water and dry your pan.
Serving and Storage Tips:
Use this paste whenever your pans look burnt or stained.
Store any leftover paste in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.
For best results, use on cast iron, stainless steel, or non-coated pans only (avoid non-stick coated pans).
Variations:
For tougher stains: Add a pinch of salt to increase the abrasive power.
For a pleasant scent: Add a few drops of essential oils like lavender or tea tree.
For heavy-duty cleaning: After applying the paste, heat the pan gently on the stove for 5 minutes, then scrub.
