cremated jam pans

wasbrokegettingbetter

Has anybody any ideas how to restre my preserving pan.
I made plum chutney (free plums!) and managed to weld half of it to the pan.
I've tried extra strong oven cleaner and carbon remover, but there is still a lot of black bits stuck to the base.

I really need you guys as a new pan is about £50/60.

This is my first go on this web site, which I lurve, so please come up trumps for me!

try soaking it overnight in a fairly strong solution of washing powder. I find this does the trick with most burnt on stuff

Try putting some ordinary washing powder in the pan and some water to cover.
Leave to soak for a couple of days and then try giving it a good scour.

I find that works.....eventually. And I too have welded many things to many pans:rotfl: :rotfl: :rolleyes:

It might take a few days but you will eventually get your pan back. I have a set of pans that have had more black on them than I care to mention, but 10 years on I manage to get them back to shiny again.

I cremated some soda bread on a brand new frying pan recently - all the scrubbing in the world wouldn't have got the black off it.

Someone - sorry, can't remember who - suggested recently filling a burnt to cinders pan with water and chucking in some dishwasher detergent, then boiling it on the hob for about 20-30 minutes. I did this...and it worked! I did have to give it another bit of a scrub, but it is clean again.

I agree with Snowyowl, try boiling some washing powder and water for half an hour, and then give it another scrub!!!!

Biological washing powder, boiled upon the hob every day for three days and then throw the pan away!
