Any good cook will burn a pan or a pot at least once in their life.

Also, any inexperienced person in this matter has experienced the same thing at least once in their life.

Also, any good cook will burn a pan or pot at least once in the future, if not already.

So, it is necessary to know the best ways to clean it, especially if we have encountered this not so pleasant fact not once, but often.

Step 1. Soak the dish in hot water

Before you decide to scrub or wash the pan, don't forget that hot water will make this process easier. Boil water and pour it into a pan or pot. It is important to cover the burned areas. If you add a little dishwashing liquid to the water, the result will be more effective. Hot water dissolves the residue well and it is easy to remove. Leave the pan or pot in this position for about 10-15 minutes, then pour it out and remove the residue.

Step 2. Prepare the cleaning product yourself

Although properly selected cleaning products do not leave us disappointed, some stains may still remain on the dishes. Housewives have a little trick for such cases. The main actor of this trick is baking soda. With its help you can easily prepare e. year A paste that will help to remove the remaining stains.

So, add a small amount of cold water to the baking soda. Try to make the mass of medium thickness, slightly mushy. Apply the prepared mixture to the problem areas of the pan and pot and leave it for 1-2 hours. Baking soda is a very effective cleaning agent and most importantly, it is safe.

Step 3. Use vinegar and salt

Stainless steel dishes can also be cleaned with salt and vinegar. Both are safe and effective remedies. Dilute the vinegar in boiling water and pour it over the pan/cauldron so that it completely covers the burnt areas.

Salt, especially coarse salt, is also effective for cleaning dishes. It cleans well the burnt or greasy surface. Try salt with hot water and dishwashing liquid, or simply sprinkle on the surface, add lemon juice and scrub with a sponge.

Step 4. Which is better - grinding or sponge?

If you want to effectively wash a stainless steel pan or pot without damaging the surface, you should consider one detail - give preference to a soft sponge and cloth. Although a coarse abrasive brush cleans dirty areas well, it can damage the surface of the pan. Teflon pans and pots are especially noteworthy, which need to be cleaned specifically with a Teflon cleaning sponge.

Step 5. Use quality cleaning products

Any hard-to-remove stains are easier to remove if you use a good quality cleaning agent.

As a rule, liquid and solid jellies often contain lemon, not only for the flavor, but also for the effect, because it is, among many other properties, the best antimicrobial and disinfectant. The most effective and outstanding products containing lemon are FAIRY and CIF.

Today, it is also quite popular to use detergents containing soda or vinegar. This is not at all surprising, since both baking soda and vinegar are considered indispensable, safe and organic antimicrobial agents. Such is the case with Frosch's detergent with soda and Grune Kraft's universal cleaning liquid with vinegar.

If your skin is sensitive and prone to dryness, and at the same time, you don't like to use gloves, give preference to detergents containing aloe vera, because, as you know, aloe juice has a positive effect on the skin, softens it and prevents it from drying out.

Step 6. Wash as usual

The last stage of washing is already obvious - dishwasher or sink, with the help of a large amount of water and dishwashing detergent. Then dry with a clean, soft cloth.

And finally, one important tip - try to wash the used and dirty dishes as soon as possible, so that food and grease residues do not stick to the surface.

We wish you delicious, healthy food and always clean dishes!
