Degreasing Historical Cooking Equipment
When you've just bought them, most pans, kettles and trivets come heavily greased. This is to make sure the material doesn't dry out and rust during storage or shipping.
Before first use, this grease needs to be removed. Keep reading to find out how to best degrease your historical cooking equipment.
Washing Up
The grease can simply be washed off with warm water and dish soap, since this is a degreasing cleaning agent. You can use a scouring sponge or, if needed, a steel brush.
Clean Burning
Another way to remove the grease is to burn the object clean in the campfire. With this method you can also remove any rust.
