Not bad for a 50 year old pot.
Awhile back, I bought a set of vintage Dansk enamel cookware from a thrift store for $10 a pot. Since I use them all the time, they have gotten pretty beat up, so I decided it was time for a good cleaning. All is took was laundry soap and elbow grease.
How to Clean Enamel Cookware
1. Clean and scrub the pot as best you can.
2. Fill the pot with water and add a tablespoon or so of laundry soap.
3. Put on stovetop and bring to a boil.
4. Let boil for 5 minutes.
5. Take off the heat and scrub under running water while the pot is still warm. It will magically come clean.
Liquid or powdered soap? Does it matter?
Aimee, good question. I used liquid. I doubt it would matter.
