Get rid of all the grease: the easy way to clean pans and pots

Over time, even the most expensive cookware becomes covered with carbon deposits, grease, and stubborn dirt. Conventional detergents don't always help, especially if the dirt is old.

Fortunately, there is a simple and practical way to restore pans and pots to their original appearance.

OBOZ.UA tells you how to do it right.

How to quickly clean dishes from soot and grease

One of the best remedies for dealing with grease and carbon deposits is ammonia. It effectively softens the dirt, after which it can be removed without any extra effort.

What do you need for this?

• ammonia;
• an old towel;
• two tight plastic bags without holes.

Step-by-step instructions:

1. Wrap the frying pan or pot in a towel.
2. Put it in a bag, add an open bottle of ammonia.
3. Tie the bag tightly, then place it in another bag and tie it tightly.
4. Shake well to distribute the ammonia evenly.
5. Leave it on for 1 hour – during this time, the fat and soot soften.
6. Remove the pan and wash it thoroughly with detergent.

After this treatment, the dishes will become clean without effort and long scrubbing. This method is suitable not only for frying pans but also for pots, baking trays, and other metal cookware.

Additional recommendations:

• Work in a well-ventilated area as ammonia fumes are pungent.
• Wear gloves to avoid contact with chemicals.
