Transforming burnt and greasy pans back to their original shine doesn’t require a trip to the store for specialty cleaners or a session of hard scrubbing with harsh chemicals. In fact, two common household ingredients can work wonders: baking soda and hydrogen peroxide. This simple, eco-friendly method not only saves you money but also reduces the need for excessive energy and water usage associated with dishwashers. Here’s how to clean and shine pans that are burnt on the outside with minimal effort.
Ingredients:
Baking Soda
Hydrogen Peroxide
Instructions:
Create the Cleaning Paste: In a small bowl, mix together baking soda with just enough hydrogen peroxide to form a paste. The consistency should be thick enough to cling to the sides of the pan without dripping off.
Apply to the Pan: Using a sponge or a soft brush, apply the paste generously to the burnt and greasy areas of the pan. Focus on the outside where burns and grease typically accumulate.
Let It Sit:
Allow the paste to sit on the pan for at least 30 minutes. For more stubborn stains, you might want to leave it for a couple of hours or even overnight. This gives the baking soda time to loosen the grime, and the hydrogen peroxide to lift the stains.
Scrub Gently: After letting the paste sit, gently scrub the areas with a non-abrasive sponge or brush. You’ll notice that the burnt residues and grease start to come off with minimal effort.
Rinse and Dry: Once you’ve scrubbed away the grime, rinse the pan thoroughly with warm water. If any stubborn spots remain, repeat the process focusing on those areas. Dry the pan with a clean cloth or let it air dry.
