Cream of tartar is not simply a way to stabilize egg whites; it can also serve as a cleaning material. Cream of tartar is an effective green cleaning material especially in removing stubborn stains. If burner pans and casserole dishes giving you fits then cream of tartar will be your new best friend.

Just like vinegar and baking soda, cream of tartar is a best bleaching agent. By using a few tablespoons with hot water you can already clean aluminum pans which have discoloration or any rusty drains, pans, or stains. You can also use cream of tartar for cleaning your copper kettles by just mixing some of it with lemon juice. You will be amazed after rinsing! Who said you can’t use it for cleaning your porcelain sink? Just by rubbing porcelain surfaces with a little bit of cream of tartar watch the stains disappear!

Fabric stains will be a problem no more by mixing a few teaspoons of cream of tartar with some glycerin. Just use it like a spray and wash solution and results will be a fabric as new. Cream of tartar is a non – abrasive cleanser, it is a basic thing you’ll find in your kitchen cabinet that can be turned into a great cleaner. Making your own green cleaning product is a way of embracing green cleaning, it won’t just help you save money but it also will help you be more environmentally – inclined.
