Cleaning Copper Bottom Pots
We left Kingston with more than an auto repair bill. My mother-in-law gave me a couple of her well-loved copper bottom pots and an enameled cast-iron skillet. Both work beautifully despite years of use.
I know how to take care of the skillet, but being new to copper pots I wasn’t sure how to keep the bases clean. So I poked about the Internet for some answers. Turns out Graham Haley knows. And he’s really eager to share. Really eager.
Yeah. Like that’s gonna happen in my house. Besides, I’m not sure I want to see my pots’ copper bottoms winking back at me. And just how many pots do you need before you have an army? I have two. What’s that make? A squad?
Be honest. Do you actually clean your pots beyond soap, hot water and a scrubbing pad? Is Handy Haley an aproned Felix Unger, or am I just a slob with friends who are too nice to tell me?
