Do you have any tarnished cutlery?  This is a simple, effortless way to shine up your cutlery.

How To Clean Tarnished Cutlery

First, put aluminum foil into a baking dish. Next, lay your cutlery on the foil and sprinkle over approximately a tablespoon of salt and baking soda.

Pour hot water over the cutlery until it is covered.  Let sit for 15 – 20 minutes.
