- Alicia from www.pinsinanuts... tests out three different ways to remove scorch marks and burned on food from pots and pans. She tries out baking soda, vinegar, and hydrogen peroxide. She then gives a Pins in a Nutshell approval rating to each method. Check out her blog post about this video at www.pinsinanuts... where we test Pins so you don't have to!
This just saved my $500 new maple syrup pan!!! "Thank you" barely does my emotions justice. Now, I wore safety goggles when using a spatula to gently and fairly easily remove the last of the most burnt syrup, as a drop of the concentrated H2O2 can permanently ruin an eye...I also bottled the gallon I had left after straining it as I can reuse it if needed in the future, as long as I store it in a cool dark place. Hope you read this, you just turned my very sad day into one that ended in gratitude for folks like you. By the way, the entire bottom of the large stainless pan was black with charred sugar, it was on so hard and thick my power drill and wire brush was not doing diddly...SO happy you did this comparison, you should get a Nobel prize for kitchen tips.
OMG! THANK YOU!! I had tried EVERYTHING! Soaking, Vinegar, Baking Soda, even a flippin dryer sheet! NOTHING worked. This was caked on, thick burned brown sugar on my precious 30 year old 8 quart stock pot! The peroxide SAVED IT FROM THE DUMP. And it made me do a happy dance!!! It worked in like 5 minutes. I mean this pan looked HORRIBLE. Thank you so much!!
I tried the baking soda and the vinegar to no avail. I was about to give up and found your video. I’m so glad I kept looking! The hydrogen peroxide worked immediately, saving my favorite pan! Thank you!
Thank you SOOO much for the peroxide trick!!! I have one of the copper colored non stick pans that got left on the burner on low and NOTHING would take it off without taking the coating with it!!! I have used the baking soda for years and actually usually it works but not this time. I tried the peroxide and within 10 minutes the flakes were starting to float to the surface!!! When things were really bad I would use baking soda boiling low on the stove and add some vinegar for stubborn spots but I ran out of baking soda doing things today and it hadn't worked well enough earlier so I grabbed the peroxide and POOF!!!! Back to a copper color non stick pan!!
Yes! Thank you for trying those out. I used the hydrogen peroxide and it worked! I'm so happy about that! Thank you!
I just tried this with a very large stock pot where the rice, mixed with tomatoes, onions and spices, stuck to the bottom. I first scraped off what I could but it was still thick. I boiled once with he hydrogen peroxide and it got about 70% of the grime off, then I was able to scrub off some big spots with a minimum of effort. I then boiled again and the pot was about 95% clean. I scrubbed lightly and the remainder came off in less than 1 minute. I'm so glad I watched this video before trying the vinegar method which would have taken loads more time. Thank you!
I burnt my pot today steaming some potatoes; at first I soaked the pot with vinegar and baking soda; I soaked it for hours ( too long to wait...) then I tried the peroxide. Voila! It worked like magic! It only took few seconds and the burnt was coming off so easily! Thank you 😊
Good job! Thank you! You took all the experimental work out and saved me so much time. Now I have two proven EASY ways to clean my messy pots. You are amazing!
I had a favorite stainless steel pan I had burned terribly because I forgot to turn the electric burner on the stove off after removing a couple of fried eggs from the pan. It probably sat on that hot burner for over an hour before I discovered what I had done. The leftover butter had just burnt into a black and brown lacquer finish on the bottom and up the sides of the pan inside and outside. I tried barkeepers friend without success. I tried vinegar and water by using a big ss stock pot and submersing the smaller pan in it. That did removed the lacquer on the outside and a little help on the inside of my pan. But it left huge blotches of black burn spots on the inside bottom. Then I tried heating vinegar again directly on the inside of my pan. Hardly budged anything. Brillo wouldn't budge those spots. Then I tried hydrogen peroxide mixed with water 50:50 on the inside of my pan. Voila! Worked a charm. If I ever have something like that again, I will try straight peroxide, heating up.
To Connie Wheeler: Good comment: But, please, Connie, don't forget to turn off the burner while using hydrogen peroxide.
Be continuously vigilant. Do not remove your tail from there until you are done!
Thank you so much. My husband thought the pot would have to be thrown out, but hydrogen peroxide came to the rescue and took off the black baked-in marks so easily.
You ma'am are amazing. Thank you for doing this. I tried baking soda. (Did not work) I tried vinegar (Did not work) I tried laundry detergent (Did not work) but the last one you showed (yes people you need to watch it) worked like a charm boiling for 7-10 mins. Saved me so much time. Thank you again!
You RULE!! Thank you so much! I've got a housemate that keeps me well-supplied with BURNT cookware!
This is AWESOME!! I'm going for the baking soda!
Thank you for putting this together. I tried the Peroxyd version and it cleaned my deeply burned pot sparkle clean! So happy about it. The best!
I just found your video and I have to say, Hydrogen Peroxide worked 100%! I had a very bad burn in my stainless steel pot. We tried everything and this really worked! THANK YOU!!!
Me too,it worked so good & peroxide is a cheap fix!
The peroxide method was amazing. I mixed peroxide with half water and covered the pots and simmered on low heat. I reused the same mixture on 4 different pots successively and then easily wiped each of them clean. I've tried many other methods and nothing compares.
Howwwwww
Can you point out more Clearly for us please
My burned pan looked like your first one - the worst - except I hadn't bothered trying to scrape any of it off. I'd bet that hydrogen peroxide would have come in last place, so was surprised it came in first! Instead of bothering with the other methods, I went straight for the hydrogen peroxide, and it easily removed every speck of the burned-on and scorched food, just like it did for you! Now I have figure out how to get some minor scorching off the bottom and it'll be as good as new. Thanks!
Loved the experiments. I Am a science teacher, so you spoke my language. I had already tried 4 methods - none worked. Headed to the store for hydrogen peroxide.
Thank you for this post! Unfortunately I tried vinegar first, didn't work! But hydrogen peroxide was awesome!!
It works. I boiled some peroxide in a badly scorched pot. It came right off. Thanks for the tip.
The peroxide worked wonderful. Highly recommend it!!
Hahaha, I was laughing with you I swear.
I had the same comment you did about the boiling baking soda. "Hmm, wonder how the pans got burnt in the first place." Then you got all flustered and mentioned it yourself... Your husband is a lucky man, that was really cute. 🥰
Great job, I like the way you presented information. First time seeing you and you were very helpful.
Your little one is cute. Thank you for good information and a little chuckle
To effortlessly clean stainless steel put the pan into your oven and set the oven to self clean. Then to remove tarnish soak the pan in a bucket of vinegar. BINGO!!!
The peroxide worked ! Thanks so much.
Hi, word of advice, never run water from the sink into a hot pot-that is how they warp.
My Aunt taught me a great trick for soaking pots and pans…. Depending on the size, use about one table spoon of automatic dishwasher detergent and hot water. There is some sort of chemical in there that loosens stuff real nice and quick too. It usually takes about 10 minutes.
Great video! At the end when you say you think the discoloration of your pan might be permanent: Try some Bar Keepers' Friend. Now that you have the char off, I think the Bar Keeper's Friend might polish it up. It's pretty good stuff.
Thank you the peroxide worked 100% I wish I had taken before and after pictures. cleaned a pan I was about to throuw out 100% like new. Thank you for your video
The hydrogen peroxide was awesome .... I tried the others and they didn't work. The peroxide worked on it's own .. .without scrubbing. Thanks for the information.
I tried the baking soda three different ways. It helped a lot, but when I tried the HO, it worked like a miracle. It did a little explosion when I let it boil dry, but I removed it from the heat and added more HO. Then I returned it to the heat and continued on. All the burnt stuff came off! So please be careful, use plenty of HO and watch it when boiling.
Thank you so much!! You saved my pot!!!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Alicia, I tried all three methods like you. I found the hydrogen peroxide method the best by far, I could see the burnt on material starting to detach after 30 seconds and by 15 minutes a lot of the brunt on material dissolved, then a wipe with a scouring pad made it 100% clean. I also tried vinegar and baking powder combo which still did not work.
Didn't have any peroxide so I tried the vinegar and it worked for me. But maybe it's because my pot wasn't that burnt plus I gently scraped the pot with a sponge using a pair of tongues while the vinegar was boiling.
Thank you so much. The hydrogen peroxide really works good!
Thx peroxide and baking soda method worked great saved my favorite pot after l burned it cooking rice
Wow!! The hydrogen peroxide just worked perfectly in 10 mins after using Dawn Powerscrub, Barkeepers Friend, steel scrubbie, soaking etc. to no avail. Thank you!
You have shown stainless steel pans and I got a burnt mark in my aluminium deep pan. I tried boiling washing soda and a little detergent to clean mytea strainer. The end result was the tea strainer got cleaned but my aluminium deep pan has got a huge stain almost on the whole of it. I need help
Thank you, I will try the peroxide and then soda method. I love your necklace, did you make it?
I just burnt my pan for the millionth time. 😔 I'll hv to try the hydrogen peroxide method. 🤞🏾 Did u use a scotch bright scrubber sponge? Thx u.
Thank you for the idea of hydrogen peroxide. I spent 4 hrs scrubbing with baking soda. Soap. Boiling with vinegar. Then all it took was 10mins with peroxide
Oh my gosh thank you!! I was not able to clean a pot y husband burn and try peroxide and in 5minutes was clean, i rinse it and it came out just with water!
The hydrogen peroxide worked on my scorched saucepan. I boiled it full strength for about 10 minutes and my favorite pan was saved. It looks like new again! Nothing else worked. My pan was blackened due to an oil fire and nothing else made a dent on the deep stains of black and brown. As it was boiling, little pieces of black floated to the top of the liquid .Thank you so much-
I was about to give up and purchase a replacement saucier to the tune of $70.
Thank you. I burnt a pan of milk and will try peroxide.
How did the third pot do?
Tried baking soda, which I had at hand, worked wonders for me.
THANK YOU!!
Put a dryer sheet in & cover with water. Leave alone overnight. Burnt on gunk will slide right out.
What do we do with that stain at 8:24?
easy off oven cleaner, is the best at getting all pot's and pan's, along with baking pan's clean and spotless in 20 minutes , then clean with dish soap rinse 2 or 3 times.
Sam's club has a cleaner Member's Mark oven grill & fryer cleaner. Works great.
I wonder if you used a Brillo pad in the final step to scrub off the light stains would remove them? Problem is that you may have to wait again until it's dirty from bad cooking disasters? Thank you.
To Chris St James: The Brillo can help. Careless cooking will not. You must be watchful while cooking and continuing to clean your kitchenware.
The hydrogen peroxide did the trick! Thanks for posting.
Hi, Alicia ...better solution.......try Bar Keepers Friend Cleanser. it clean up all kitchen burnt pots and pans and bathroom toilet and shower mildews, molds issues.
add vinegar and baking soda together
Pasta sauce in pan like yours. I forgot it. The way I tried was 3 sheets of Fleecy or Downy and over these sheets place at the bottom, I poured Down dishwasher blue liquid a lot. Let it sink for 2-4 hours and everything lift easy and my pan is clean!
You should not use acidic acids (vinegar) on stainless steel. Shouldn't cook acidic foods in stainless steel, it does the same thing. I have found that soaking in baby oil, just cover the burnt bottom and let set for a day or to. Best to do it when it is still warm. It can take all the burnt off or at minimum a good share of it.
Hi- can I use the hydrogen peroxide method on a non-stick pan?
I googled how to scrub off burnt on food because I seriously burned a pot while making marmalade - to the extent where I thought I would have to throw out the pan. The recommended method was half water half white vinegar and simmer for about 10 minutes. Unlike your experiment the vinegar and water method was fantastic! I did have to do minor scrubbing afterward but not much. Maybe try again with the addition of water to the white vinegar??
Only problem is boiling H202 to dryness creates an explosive
Hi what percentage hydro proxide did you use, 3% 9% or 12%?
3
I have a heavy aluminum pot that my wife fried in for years that I want to clean. Evidently the oil boiled out another of times, it is super-caked on, I mean like textured layers, any suggestions?
Phillipeclarke...throw it away. Aluminum is toxic to your health. Replace it with a good cast iron or stainless steel one.
What R H said!!! Throw that fucker away!!
Is it good to put water in a hot pan or pot ? Unless she was using hot water, I was told never to use cold water in empty hot pan .
I think they all should have equal amounts of materials in the pot to give a fair evaluation...the vinegar had more
Baking soda and vinegar both in the pan is better
You need to put 1:1 ratio of vinegar and water
Omg thank you hydrogen peroxide for the win !!!!!
I'm glad the hydrogen peroxide worked for you. However, I know that if you boil hydrogen peroxide exceeding certain high temperature it has the potential to explode.
I was scared 🥱
I just got new pots and pans for Christmas and I just got done making a grilled cheese sandwich and I burned my sandwich man I'm mad as hell😡
Baked on sugar, peroxide did the job within 5 minutes Thought that the pot was ready to be tossed .
WHY ARE YOU DUMPING OUT THE CLEANING SOLUTIONS? Try adding just a little bit of cold water so your brush won't melt, and use the baking soda and vinegar and all a chance to remove the burns while scrubbing...
This person must be from Minnesota
Let mine soak then used a utility razor blade. Easy..
To Stacey Vickery: This would not have sufficient uniformity.
Thanks you cute where u live
Hydrogen Peroxide is amazingly great ...!!!
Work better than vinegar or baking soda
♦ Thank You ♦
Vinegar ALONG with baking soda and a little bit of water, bring to a boil, and it works!
Just vinegar by itself, does nothing. Baking soda works as a scouring pad, the vinegar to loosen and disinfect, and the heat and water to do the rest.
Mary Corder
Thanks!

Probably, but neither myself or the other commenter said anything about boiling hydrogen peroxide, I wouldn't do it personally. Just boil baking soda and vinegar, and a little bit of salt., before thaat though, try dry scrubbing the pot, just to loosen up the debris. Whatever this video says, I have found that what I stated works easily, so why do something different? However, this only works if you clean the pot or pan right away or at least within 3 days of it getting messed up/burnt/otherwise cooked, baked on food debris on the cooking dish.
Maria Camilla Thiago
No worries.
You were on this thread, so that led me to think otherwise. I apologize.
You can comment.
As far as boiling peroxide, I wouldn't boil it but I would probably just boil some water first and then take it off of the heat source and then quickly add the hydrogen peroxide, after it has been removed from the burner, then cover it with a lid, and let it sit with a little dish soap, then work it when it's cooled down to the touch.
Wonderful tips.
Maria Camilla Thiago I had the same reaction... I'm glad to see it's so effective, but I was expecting a big boom the whole time I was watching... I think it may be more dangerous cooking hydrogen peroxide over the gas burner as a lot of oxygen releases and fuels the fire.
I don't think you were fair to the the pan you used the vinegar on. It was 20 times dirtier and thicker than both of the other two pans. The pan you used with the peroxide had the least amount of burnt food left on it AND it had already been washed in the dishwasher Twice before this. Using the peroxide on it after does show that the peroxide does work.
HUGE WARNING!!! IF YOU OWN BIRDS DO NOT USE THE PEROXIDE METHOD!!!! IT WILL KILL YOUR BIRDS!!!
PERSONALLY, I WOULD DO THIS ENTIRE PROCESS WITH THE POT OR PAN COVERED EVEN WITH THE VINEGAR OR THE BAKING SODA METHODS JUST TO BE SAFE!!! DEPENDING ON HOW CLOSE THE CAGE IS TO THE KITCHEN ... MAYBE OPEN WINDOWS AND MAYBE USE A FAN BLOWING AWAY FROM THE CAGE OR PULLING AIR AND PUSHING IT OUT THE WINDOW.
epic life hack: Make the ultimate cleaner by mixing hydrogen peroxide and vinegar!
don't actually do that
Another video uses Oxyclean and water, bring to boil, then turn off burner and leave covered for 20 minutes.
FAIL: You had far different levels burnt material in each pot.
The best...hydrogen peroxide is a keeper.
Edit……
I bet that baby big now
Need to watch video how to clean ur stove top
Try comet ok
...and she end up burning the cleaning product !...the moral of the story...eat out or order it !
boring.....
Bad sound, child interruption, annoying!
It sounds completely fine and it wasn't that annoying of an interruption.
Clean your stove
Looks filthy
NOTHING GOOD TO SAY? Why do you comment in the first place?
I know it's been 7 years but I just watched this today, thank you so much 😁
