For example, did you know that ketchup can do the trick? It’s surprising, but this tip has proven to work.

Thanks to its vinegar content, which contains acetic acid, this sauce effectively removes burnt residue that sticks to pans.

What’s next? Grease the utensil with a thick layer of ketchup and let it rest for about half an hour. After this time, all you have to do is scrape off the remaining residue with a wooden spatula. Then scrub with a dishwashing sponge soaked in detergent, rinse well and you’re done. Your pan is now free of any dirt!

Another little-known tip for saving a burnt pan? A simple soda (like Coca Cola) can breathe new life into your utensil. Again, the idea may seem crazy, but if you try it, you will be surprised by the result.

What’s next? Pour soda into the bottom of the pan (to a depth of 1 cm). Then heat it for a few minutes (over low heat) and wait until it cools down. Then rub gently with a sponge to remove any loose residue. Then wash as usual. The pan shines again!
