Introduction We’ve all been there—distracted just long enough for our cooking to turn from delicious to disastrous, leaving us with a burnt pot or pan. Not to worry, though! With this easy cleaning hack, you can restore your cookware to its former glory without any harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing.
Step-by-Step Guide to Cleaning Burnt Pots and Pans Here’s a straightforward and effective method to tackle those tough burnt marks:
Cool Down: First, allow your pot or pan to cool completely. Never start cleaning while it is still hot as it can cause damage or burns.
Remove Loose Debris: Empty the pot or pan of any loose food particles. This can be done by simply tapping it into the trash or using a plastic scraper.
Boil with Baking Soda: Fill the pot or pan with water until the burnt areas are completely submerged. Add two tablespoons of baking soda. Bring this mixture to a boil, and let it simmer for a few minutes. The baking soda helps break down the burnt residue.
