How to use:
Pour white vinegar onto the burnt area.
Sprinkle baking soda over it.
Let it fizz and work for 10–15 minutes.
Scrub and rinse.
✔ Great for tough stains and grease.
4️⃣ Citric Acid (Lemon Salt) – The Most Powerful Option
Citric acid is especially effective for burnt-on residue and mineral buildup.
Method 1: Boiling
Fill the pot with water to cover the dirty area.
Add 1–2 tablespoons of citric acid.
Boil for 10–15 minutes.
Let it cool slightly, then scrub and rinse.
Method 2: Paste
Mix citric acid with a little water.
Apply to the burnt surface.
Let sit for 20–30 minutes.
Scrub and rinse.
✔ Excellent for stainless steel and heavily burnt pots.
⚠️ Precautions:
Do not use citric acid on plain aluminum cookware — it can discolor it.
Avoid metal scrubbers on non-stick surfaces.
Never mix citric acid with bleach or chlorine-based cleaners (dangerous).
Test any method on a small area first.
Wear gloves if you have sensitive skin.
With these natural methods, even the dirtiest pots can be cleaned safely and effectively — no harsh chemicals needed.
