Sterling Silver & Copper Cleaner Do you have a copper bottomed pan or some sterling silver that needs to be cleaned? Have we got a recipie for you!!!
Yep, you heard us - ketchup! My grandma used to love to use this on the bottom of her copper pots! Use just as you would any other sterling silver (or copper) cleaner. Soak your tarnished pieces in ketchup and check back every few minutes to measure progress. Are you a lover of that slightly tarnished look, when the edges of those embellishments become deliciously, artistically deepened? No worries, with ketchup, instead of some harsher cleaners, you can take advantage of the slower process to be sure that tarnish removal leaves you with perfect looking silver every time! Choose organic ketchup and reduce your footprint by even more!
This has served my family well, and I hope it will serve yours too! All ecological concerns aside, with a large family, I don't often have silver polish on hand, but I DO always have ketchup.... a lot of ketchup... Enjoy!
