I believe this originally came from Heloise. I always lose it so I thought posting it here was a good idea.

Steps:
- Put drain stopper in the sink and add the foil, one piece lengthwise and one across.
- Pour in boiling water.
- Add the baking soda and swish it around.
- Place the silver pieces in the solution, making sure they touch the foil, and let stand for several minutes.
- Carefully watch as the tarnish moves from the silverware to the foil.
- Remove the pieces, rinse well, and dry with a soft cloth.
- Only use this method occasionally, especially if you have silverplate.
- This can only be done in your sink--enamel or porcelin ONLY!
- DO NOT USE in a stainless steel sink.
- This recipe should NOT be used on antique or priceless pieces and should be used only occasionally.
- Keep in mind that this removes the oxide finish that adds subtle shadows, which create depth and dimension to detailed silver patterns.
