Scouring saucepans

Fill your pan with water, then add a sliced onion and one desert spoon of salt. Boil then leave to soak overnight. In the morning the residue should wash away easily.

Totally cost free

Thanks Nky
I guess if you use one of the Savvy Homemade Laundry Detergents you would have a totally cost free scouring powder :-)

Here's another option if you already have the ingredients below.

1 cup baking soda
1 cup borax
1 cup regular salt

Mix the ingredients and store them in an airtight container. Use as you would any shop bought scouring powder.
