Want your copper pans to regain their shine?
Copper tends to oxidize quickly if it is not maintained regularly.
As a result, copper objects become dull. But no need to buy a special product to clean very dirty copper.
A cook friend revealed to me a super effective trick to make his dirty copper pans shine.
The trick is to clean them with coarse salt, lemon and white vinegar . Look, it's quite simple:
- 1/4 glass of lemon juice
- 1/4 white vinegar
- 1 handful of coarse salt
1. Pour the coarse salt into a bowl.
2. Add lemon juice and white vinegar.
3 . Mix well.
4 . Using a cloth, take a little of this mixture.
5 . Rub the copper object.
6 . Rinse thoroughly with warm water.
7 . Wipe with a clean, dry cloth to shine.
There you go, your copper pans have regained all their shine as on the first day :-)
They are sparkling, without any trace of verdigris! It's still cleaner that way, isn't it?
And it's more economical than buying a metal cleaner, like Miror!
You now know the cook's secret to ensuring that their tinned copper cookware set is always nickel.
This trick is just as effective for cleaning any other copper object:bracelets, basins, Moroccan trays...
To make it even more effective, you can also add to the mixture:1/4 cup of flour and 2 egg whites.
Instead of white vinegar, you can also use red alcohol vinegar to keep a nice color.
If streaks persist, use an old toothbrush to scrub over the stubborn stains.
