KOMPAS.com – Oil splatters are often a challenge for enamel-coated cookware, especially after long cooking sessions. Cleaning requires special techniques so that the enamel layer remains safe and durable.
When oil stains are attached to the enamel surface, sometimes ordinary soap is not enough to clean it. With a few simple ingredients, these stubborn stains can be treated without damaging the surface.

Keeping enamel-coated cooking utensils clean not only makes the kitchen tidier, but also maintains the quality of the food.
A few easy steps and environmentally friendly materials can help cookware keep looking like new, as reported on the page The Kitchen And Real Simple.
1. Use Baking Soda Paste for Light Stains
Baking soda is a natural ingredient with a mild abrasive that is safe for cleaning enamel surfaces.
Mix baking soda with a little water until it forms a thick paste, then rub it on the stain using a soft sponge in circular movements.
Once the stain has been removed, rinse and dry the equipment to ensure it lasts longer.
2. Treat stubborn stains with hydrogen peroxide
If baking soda isn’t enough, hydrogen peroxide can be a powerful solution. Pour hydrogen peroxide until the bottom of the utensil is covered, add baking soda, and heat on the stove until bubbly.
Once the mixture has cooled, rinse the equipment for cleaner results.
3. Use a Chlorine Bleach Solution for Extreme Stains
For stains that are very difficult to remove, a chlorine bleach solution may be a last resort. Mix chlorine with water, then soak enamelware for 2-3 hours before rinsing.
However, this method should only be used occasionally to maintain the enamel layer.
