THE festive period involves a lot of baking and cooking – let’s admit, when’s the last time you gave your pots and pans a good clean?

Having a quick look at the bottom of your kitchen pots and saucepans is enough for you to gasp in horror – you haven’t seen them sparkling since the day of purchase.

But that doesn’t mean you have to get rid of them or give up on the dream of ever seeing them as good as new!

A savvy cleaning and cooking fanatic has shared the extremely simple recipe of polishing the greasy bottom of the pan with barely any scrubbing involved – and we’re certain you already have the necessary ingredients.

Step one, according to the health guru, is sprinkling some salt which is then topped off with a generous dusting of baking powder.

The next step is pouring over a bit of dishwashing liquid and covering it all with a few tissues.

This leads us to the final ingredient – white vinegar.

Once the mixture’s marinated for a bit, all that’s left is removing the wet tissues, which will have absorbed all the hardened grease by now.

Use the remaining liquid to wipe the bottom of the pan properly and give it a good rinse – it will look like brand new!
