burnt pan...what to use?

trumpton

Traditional solution is to boil up rhubarb in the burnt pan for a while, that'll get burnt stuff off. I can also recommend Fairy Power Spray - spray on and leave for 20 mins. It shifts just about anything. Great for burnt pans, stained sinks and so on. Don't get it on worktops, clothes etc. as it's very strong stuff.

Add some salt to boiling water and simmer for a while, this worked a treat on my pyrex saucepan when I make chutney! Easy and cheap!

i was watching how clean is your house the other day and the big blonde one (never know which one is kim and which is aggie!) was getting the bloke to heat cola in the pan that had all the burnt on stuff in it until it started to boil and then all the black bit came off. Not tried it myself tho.

I was about to suggest this,as it works a treat.Ordinary cola of course.You can get to work with a brush as it simmers.:D

Pour in enough white vinegar into the pan to cover the burn, bring to the boil and simmer for around ten minutes or so. The burnt jam can be lifted with a wooden spoon and any stubborn bits removed with a scourer. I know - I did it today!
Don't lean over the pan though - the fumes are not pleasant.

Ok girls, I'm counting on you!

One of my pans now has a nice burnt on coating of pasta that I was cooking for my poorly dog, who has an upset tum.
I forgot about it and although the pasta was ok (for the dog), by the time I smelt it, enough had burnt on the bottom of the pan.
I've soaked it but in the recesses of my mind I think I've seen something on here about removing stuff like this - I think it may be salt but not sure.
Help! Don't want to chuck the pan as it's not that old!
Thanks in advance!

Don't know about salt but bio washing powder, water and time will do the trick - the enzymes in the powder work on the starch in the pasta.

Coca cola may do the trick!
