    I am the queen of burn, I seem to always have something stuck to my pots & pans, I did see a new product & ordered a box, IT WORKS, I found this product called Magic Sheets it is made just for me the queen of burn, I couldnt believe how fast I get my pots & pans clean without scrubbing it is great. The best thing is it is nontoxic unlike my cooking or I should say burning.

    I'm lucky I didn't start a kitchen fire. I had the rice on high and then got a phonecall. Anyway the pan was crusted with black. I got it all of the charred rice remains off with 2 treatments of oven cleaning spray and a SOS pad. Yeah for chemicals!

    I tried a couple of cups of vinegar, boiled for a few minutes. Worked great.

    I recently need to try the suggested remedy using Hydrogen Peroxide. It is a miracle worker extraordinaire. I had a very badly burnt sauce pan (Chai Tea, left on the stovetop all night long!), and after following directions from "dearmom" the entire blackened mess peeled away without effort. The only thing I have to add it that initially I wasn't sure that it would work (brief soaking of 20 minutes, and I couldn't detect any change), but simply poured the HP off, and let it sit on the counter, the next day it went through the dishwasher and came out absolutely clean. Like I said, a miracle!

    After steaming corn without enough water in the pot, the bottom was black. Even a razor could not scrape it off. I soaked the pot in liquid dishwasher detergent with just a little bit of water. I boiled the liquid and just let it sit on the stove for several hours. I was then able to scrape off all of the black.

    Spray on a little oven cleaner. Then put the pot in a plastic bag for 30 minutes or so. Wash well with dish-soapy water and rinse.

    We burnt apricot mix onto the bottom of the jam pan. After trying everything to get it off, I used my oxy-acetylene torch on a wide flame to heat the outside of the pan base. Some of the burnt jam flaked off. Then I heated the burnt jam directly, followed by a paint scraper to gently remove the bulk of the mess. Finally sanding with wire wool left a new surface.

    I took the pan out to the workshop and used an oxy torch (wide flame on the cutting head) on the bottom which loosened some of the carbon on the inside. Then I scraped the flakes off with a wooden spatula. What was left was burnt on hard, so I heated it directly with the oxy flame (700 C). This started to oxidize the carbon. Then I scraped the carbon off gently with a paint scraper, finally finishing with a fine wire wool. Result - a new finish in 10 minutes. No scratches, no discoloration.

    Carbon Off cleaner is wonderful. It is made by Discovery products in Washington state and comes in an aerosol can priced at about $12.00. I have a new Bosch Stainless Range with stainless on the cooktop. I have tried many things to remove cooked on stains from around the burner without scratching the surface. Do not use anything that contains ammonia on the stainless because it will damage it. I purchased the Carbon Off cleaner from a local restaurant supply and sprayed it on the cooktop, let it set overnight and the next morning I was able to wipe the cooktop 100% totally and completely clean. I rinsed it down with a wet cloth and dried it and it looks just like new. The information on the can indicates this product can be used for many different metals.

    I have never seen anything work like this product. After trying almost all of these tips with limited success on a very scorched pan, I heard about Bar Keepers Friend. It comes in a powder or liquid form in the cleaners section of your supermarket with the other specialty cleaners. Amazing stuff and worth its weight in gold. Should be called Barkeepers BEST Friend!!
