Hi Musk,

We use a stainless steel pot to make tea. If you have a layer forming at the bottom of the pan, you can brush it away with a plastic bristle brush and then use AJAX powder (comes in a blue can) and a scrubby dish pad to make the stainless steel pot shiny and new.

Hi Tia,

AJAX powder works really well for stainless steel and is pretty inexpensive. I have not used Bar Keeper’s but have heard that it is good as well. Either way, you still have to use a scrubber pad and a little arm strength .

Cast iron is really good, but it takes a long time to heat up. It would be great for daals if you want to slow cook them for really good flavor.

Hey, I love your website..I am extremely addicted to it..
I was wondering if you have any tips on cleaning burnt oil (that leaves a stain) on a Stainless Steel pot..I added oil to my SS pot (on high), and there was this big yellow stain that refuses to vanish..I tried everthing from baking soda to stainless steel scrub..nothing works !!..I read about Bar Keeper’s Cleaning products..What do you think of them?
Also, I am interested in buying the cast iron pots (Rachel Ray) but I want to know if I can use them for Indian cooking..like curries, vegetables, dal..etc
