Ways to cure aluminum pots
We have already seen what aluminum pots are cured for, and now we will learn the different ways to do it effectively.
First of all, new aluminum pots come with a layer of protective grease from the factory, so pre-cleaning is required.
As a first step, we remove the adhesives from the pots and wash with warm water plus a degreasing detergent to remove the protective layer. But be careful, you have to rub gently and with the help of a sponge, rinse and dry with a microfiber cloth so as not to scratch the aluminum surface.
Let’s see how to do it:
Lemon with vinegar trick to cure aluminum pots
- Once we wash the aluminum pot and remove the protective layer, we fill it with water. The measure is that each liter of water is poured 1 cup of white vinegar with the lemon juice.
- Next step, heat the pot over low heat until it boils, when it boils it is removed and left to cool for about 10 minutes.
- Finally, empty the pot and rinse well, then dry with a clean cloth.
This is how aluminum pots are cured and food is prevented from sticking.
3 Tips and advice to take care of your aluminum pots:
- We should never leave the food inside the pot for a long time, this way it is avoided that the food sticks and it is not so difficult to remove the remains of food.
- To maintain the shine of the pots, it helps a lot to wipe them with a clean cloth with alcohol before storing them.
