Thankfully, using simple household ingredients like baking soda and vinegar can effectively clean the bottom of your pans, leaving them looking shiny and new. This method is not only incredibly easy but also eco-friendly, using natural ingredients instead of harsh chemicals.

Baking Soda: Acts as a mild abrasive that helps scrub away stains and grime without scratching the surface. It’s also great for neutralizing odors.

A scrub sponge or soft brush
