Saving a Burned Pan ~ Friday Foods

Hi, Sweet Friends,

I am sure that most of you, including me and Hubby, have burned a few things in a pan. I just recently made a pot of tea and forgot it. Yes, I got sidetracked and the whole house smelled like someone smoking a cigar. Horrible for me as I have asthma.

After I realized what I had done, I slid the pot off the hot burner and let it cool down. I then put hot water in it and let it sit overnight. Not much happened except the tea bags loosened off the burnt bottom of the pan. So then I searched a remedy to this burning problem.

On FaceBook Blossom Account I found this video. https://www.facebook.com/FirstMediaBlossom/videos/10154509588559586/

So, I did as the video directed and here are the results!

I added a drop of dish soap to the pan and added warm water up to the top.

I added the fabric softener sheet to the pot of warm soapy water.

I pushed it in to get it completely wet. I started the timer at 11:00am.

Leaving the pot to soak for 30 minutes. Yes, I started at 2 minutes till and took the photo when the timer went off.

I mushed the fabric softener sheet around the bottom of the pan.

I then poured off the water to take a look.

Well, I can say it worked well. The tea bags are still a bit infused in the bottom of the pan, but all in all, the black gunk is gone.

I used copper wool to scrub at the bottom of the pan, however, I did not have to scrub as hard and that was a plus!

I rinsed and washed the pot with soapy water. All of the black grime is now off the bottom of the pan.

I can live with the small amounts of stain, as this is a Tea Pot for making our daily tea.
So we give this process a WIN!! Thanks to Blossom Videos on FaceBook for giving us a great way to get the burnt gunk out of a pan! Try this one, it really does work!
Enjoy!
