The ingredient that immediately removes burns in pots and pans. 

Removing burnt stains from pots and pans can be a challenging task, but there is an effective ingredient that can quickly lift tough, burnt-on residue: baking soda. Known for its mild abrasiveness and natural cleaning properties, baking soda can effectively tackle burnt stains without damaging cookware. Here’s a guide to using baking soda, along with other methods that can make your pots and pans look brand new.

1. Baking Soda and Water Paste

  • How to Use: Sprinkle a generous layer of baking soda directly onto the burnt area. Add a small amount of water to form a paste and let it sit for 15–30 minutes. The baking soda will help break down the burnt residue, making it easier to scrub away.
  • Scrubbing: After allowing the paste to sit, use a non-scratch sponge or brush to scrub the area gently. The burnt residue should begin to lift off. Rinse thoroughly and dry.

2. Baking Soda and Vinegar Combination

  • How to Use: Pour enough vinegar to cover the bottom of the pot or pan, and then bring it to a boil. Once it’s hot, remove the pan from the heat and add a couple of tablespoons of baking soda (it will fizz). Let this mixture sit for a few minutes, then scrub.
  • Why It Works: Vinegar’s acidity helps loosen the burnt-on food, while baking soda’s abrasiveness aids in scrubbing.

3. Salt and Baking Soda for Stubborn Burns

  • How to Use: Combine equal parts salt and baking soda. Sprinkle this mixture over the burnt area, then add a bit of warm water to create a paste. Let it sit for 15 minutes before scrubbing with a non-abrasive pad.
  • Benefits: Salt provides extra scrubbing power and works especially well on stainless steel pans.
