Stainless steel pot can soak in white vinegar for an hour. If it's too much, cook a little. As long as it's not too sticky, just wipe it with a rag after boiling. Similar tasks such as descaling of stainless steel hot water kettle can also be handled in this way.

During the Spring Festival, every household should "fry, boil and stew", and pots made of various materials are frequently used. If you don't master the heat well, the bottom of the pot is likely to be smashed, which is very troublesome to clean up after the holiday. Wu Jing, a domestic service professional, said that there are black scales on the bottom of the pot, so you can try these small methods.

If there are black scales on the bottom of the stainless steel small pot, you can find a large container, fill it with water, add some pineapple skins, then put the small pot into the container, heat it with fire until the water boils, and after boiling for 20 to 30 minutes, take it out and gently wipe it with a cloth to remove the black scales.

If it's aluminum pot, don't clean it with steel balls, which will damage the protective film on the pot. You can heat and cook the apple skins, and then use them to wipe the black dirt, which is very effective. You can also put a little water in the pot, put a few sliced tomatoes in and boil them, then pour out the tomatoes, and then simply wipe the bottom of the pot with a rag to remove the black dirt. If you don't want to use tomatoes, you can use half a bowl of white vinegar or a handful of tea instead, and the effect is the same.

If the bottom of the pot is burnt, put the pot on the stove and let it dry for a while with a small fire. When the wok smokes, sprinkle some salt and shake it for one minute, then turn off the fire and wipe it with a cleaning ball, so that the black scales can be removed without leaving any smell.
