GUIDE
Is your pot burnt?
After a delightful dinner, doing the dishes can feel like a bit of a chore. Stews are wonderful, but high cooking temperatures can leave stubborn, burnt-on residues that are tough to remove. At Eva Solo, you can find a variety of excellent pots that make cleaning much easier. Has the damage already been done, and your pot is burnt? Don’t worry. It can definitely be saved. Read on to find out how.
Say Goodbye to Burnt Pots
Burnt pots can be incredibly frustrating. Is that burnt rice pudding or stubborn stains refusing to budge? Fortunately, there are ways to deal with them. But you can also minimize the issue by choosing the right pots. At Eva Solo, you’ll find a range of great pots that can help prevent food from sticking and burning.
Avoid burnt pots by choosing those with a Slip-Let® coating. These pots are designed to prevent food from sticking, so you won’t be left with burnt residues after cooking.
Easy Pot Cleaning
When you choose pots with a Slip-Let® coating, you can use a minimal amount of fat, and avoid burnt pots after cooking. Cleaning can be done easily with warm water and a few drops of regular dish soap.
If you choose pots with a ceramic PFAS-free Slip-Let® coating, you'll also benefit from scratch resistance and heat tolerance up to 400 degrees. No more worrying about burnt rice pudding or scorched spots at the bottom.
You can also rid yourself of burnt-on food with our pots featuring the classic Slip-Let® coating. Here too, you’ll find both pots and pans that require less fat and are easy to clean. If you’re dealing with something like burnt rice pudding, simply use warm water and a few drops of dish soap, and your pot will be as good as new.
How to clean a burnt pot
Is your pot burnt, and have you tried removing grease and burnt food with dish soap and other cleaning products without success? In some cases, your pots and pans may seem beyond saving when food has burnt on at high heat. However, in most cases, you can remove the burnt food and restore your pot to its original clean state.
- Start by heating water in a kettle, and let the pot soak with a few drops of dish soap or a dishwasher tablet in the hot water; this will help loosen the burnt food. Ideally, let the pot soak overnight, or at least for an hour.
- Use a good dish soap for cleaning your pots. Once the food residues have loosened, you should find that they come off the bottom of the pot quickly.
- Sometimes, all the food residue is gone, but stubborn stains remain. In this case, mix baking soda with cold water to form a thick paste—not too runny. Apply the paste over the stains and let it sit for a couple of hours. After that, the signs of burning should have disappeared. Remember, if your pots are made of stainless steel, avoid using steel wool or metal sponges. Instead, use a regular sponge.
- It may seem simple, but once you’ve followed the necessary steps to get rid of the burnt rice pudding or other dishes, all that’s left is to wash the pot with regular dish soap, as you usually would. Your pot should be good as new!
