Simple Homemaking

Dirty Dishes
Housekeeping tip of the day:
Burnt pan rescue tips.
  • fill pot with 3 inches of water or to cover all burnt or baked on areas. Add a 1/4 of a cup of dishwasher liquid. Stir to dissolve. Let sit overnight (put pan in oven if you have animals that might take a sip ;-) Pan should wipe clean.
  • For really bad burnt pans, try the above treatment, but first bring the mixture to a boil. Then allow pan to sit overnight~ with soapy mixture slowly eating away at the burnt mess.
  • fill pot with water. Add 1/4 cup - 1/2 cup of baking soda and 1 tsp. of dish soap. Bring pot to a boil. Stir. Burnt bits should loosen and float up into the water. Rinse and repeat if necessary.
Always rewash pots when all burnt areas are clean.
And guess how I know...blushing!

Hi, I have just dicovered your blog, I am humbled and touched by your amazing faith in the Lord. It is so good to see. This journey we are asked to walk is one of highs and lows, easy and difficult. I am so grateful the pathway is well trodden, we only have to stay to focus on our Guide. Blessings.

Thanks, I use the third option with baking soda quite often - it really works!
