Fill the pot with water: Pour enough water into the pot to cover the burned area. If necessary, add a little more water to cover the higher areas.
Add white vinegar: Add a quarter cup of white vinegar to the water. The amount can be adjusted depending on the size of the pot or pan.
Add salt: Add two heaping tablespoons of salt. This will help loosen the burn.
Boil the mixture: Bring the pot to a boil. As the water begins to boil, you will notice that the burnt residue gradually comes off. Let it boil for a few minutes.
Cool the pot: Once you have turned off the heat, let the pot cool completely to avoid burns during washing.
Remove the water: When the mixture has cooled, throw away the water. You will notice that much of the burn has already come off (about 60 to 70%).
Scrub with soap: To remove the remaining residue, apply soap and use a soft cloth or a regular sponge. If the burn is minor, you will only need the regular sponge. Scrub until all the burn is gone.
Final Result: When you scrub, you’ll notice that the burn has been removed by more than 90%, leaving your pot or pan almost like new.
This trick is simple, effective, and uses common ingredients. If it worked for you, feel free to share your experience.
