We’ve all been there—distracted for just a moment while cooking, only to find that our inattention has resulted in a pan with a burnt bottom. While it may seem like the end of the world (or at least the end of your pan), don’t despair! There are several methods to restore your cookware to its former glory.
Cleaning a burnt pan is not only about elbow grease; it’s about knowing the right tricks to break down those tough, charred areas without damaging your pan.

1. Soak in hot, soapy water:
The first step in cleaning a burnt pan is to fill it with hot water and a squirt of dish soap. Allow it to soak for an hour or longer to loosen the burnt residues. The longer it soaks, the easier it will be to scrub away the burnt bits. After soaking, use a non-abrasive scrubber to gently remove the grime.
2. Use baking soda and vinegar:
For a powerful cleaning solution, mix equal parts of white vinegar and water in the pan and bring it to a boil. Then, remove the pan from the heat and add two tablespoons of baking soda. Expect some fizzing. After the reaction has subsided, empty the pan and scour with a scrubbing pad. The burnt remnants should come off more easily.
3. Try the salt method:
Salt can be another effective abrasive. Sprinkle a generous amount of table salt onto the burnt areas and add just enough water to form a paste. Let it sit until the water evaporates, which gives the salt time to absorb and lift the burnt residue. Scrub away with a soft sponge to avoid scratching the pan.
4. Use cola as a cleaner:
