Where to buy ingredients

Bicarb is a soft abrasive that won't scratch stainless steel or enamel. Bound with castile and a splash of glycerine, it stays a creamy paste in the jar.

Method

  1. 1

    Mix the bicarb and castile to a crumble, add the glycerine, then water until it's like thick icing.

How to use

  • Scoop onto a damp cloth or brush, scrub, rinse.
  • Burnt pans: spread it on, add a splash of hot water, leave 30 minutes, then scrub.

Tips

  • Add 5 drops of lemon essential oil for scent.
