kitchen basics

Clean your kitchen cookware by using Bar Keepers Friend.

January 9, 2012 8 Comments

I have a new friend who turns 120 years old this year.

Her name is… Bar Keepers Friend.

She’s still looking pretty good.

She’s a bargain for $1.72 at Walmart.

She will clean your stainless steel, copper, brass, glass cooktop, porcelain, tile, and fiberglass.  Oh, and according to all the rave reviews on her facebook page, she’s fantastic at cleaning dry eraser boards.

She cleaned my copper-bottomed pan.

Actually, my husband cleaned them for me.

BEFORE Bar Keepers Friend
DURING Bar Keepers Friend (scrub, Dennis, scrub!)
AFTER Bar Keepers Friend… oh me, oh my, I do declare that is spiffy shiny and just like new!

Beautiful.

Thanks Dennis!

Hey, are you interested in a Bar Keepers Friend sample?

Whenever someone on their facebook page asks about their products, they offer the following: “send your address to cdietz@barkeepersfriend.com – we will mail you samples.”

Go on… do it!

After browsing around, I discovered there is a giveaway going on right now for a full-size cannister that ends January 13th at ourdailygreenlife.

Go right ahead, add your name to the list, too!

Here’s an easy next step.  Head on over to Walmart and pick up a 21oz canister for yourself, in the All Purpose Cleaning section where Windex and Clorox Disinfecting Wipes are located.  I found it for a measly $1.72 at the Bentonville Supercenter.  The liquid form is available on Walmart.com.

There you have it.  Spruce up your cookware with Bar Keepers Friend.

While you are at it (or your husband, child, or anyone you can get to do this for you is at it) sprinkle some cleanser in your stainless steel sink and viola!

Look at you.

You have a new shiny best friend.

Eat well, my friends.  Eat well.

Lyndi

    You know what else she'll do? Remove permanent Sharpie pen from painted wood cabinets! I'm no bar-keeper but she's my friend.

“Just like becoming an expert in wine–you learn by drinking it, the best you can afford–you learn about great food by finding the best there is, whether simply or luxurious. Then you savor it, analyze it, and discuss it with your companions, and you compare it with other experiences.” – Julia Child
