Introduction:
Burnt pots and pans are an unfortunate reality in many kitchens, but that stubborn residue can be tough to remove. Commercial cleaners can be expensive, harsh, and full of chemicals, which is why many people turn to DIY solutions. Fortunately, there’s a simple and natural method that only requires one household ingredient to restore your cookware to its original glory. Whether you’ve scorched a pot while cooking or left a pan unattended for too long, this easy trick will help you remove those pesky burn marks and make your pots and pans look brand new again. Let’s dive into how you can save your cookware with a natural, affordable solution.
Ingredients:
Baking soda (1-2 tablespoons)
Water (enough to cover the burnt area)
A sponge or scrub brush (preferably non-abrasive to avoid scratching)
Instructions:
Create the Baking Soda Paste:
Start by sprinkling 1 to 2 tablespoons of baking soda directly onto the burnt area of your pot or pan. The amount you need will depend on the size of the stain or burn marks.
Add a small amount of water to the baking soda to form a paste. You don’t want it too watery—aim for a thick consistency that can cling to the burn marks.
Apply the Paste:
Spread the baking soda paste evenly over the scorched area. If the burn is particularly stubborn, you can apply a thicker layer for more effective cleaning.
Let the paste sit on the burned spots for about 15 to 30 minutes. The baking soda will work its magic, loosening the burned residue and grime.
Scrub the Area:
