Burnt Pot


New stove...excuse
Never make rice...excuse
Memory loss...excuse
Can't smell...excuse
All these excuses lead up to this...
 My favorite pot destroyed

 Or so I thought!

 Helpful Hint:
*Cover burnt on food with vinegar 
*Bring to a boil
 (be sure to watch it)
* Remove to cool down 
(remember to turn off the stove)
*Scrub with a stain-steel scrubbing pad.


I went a step further and cleaned the 
whole pot with, 
Bar Keepers Friend 
It's like it never happened.

I'm very happy!

  2. Well, good to know. So glad that you caught this before a "real" fire broke out. Think that pot is good for another few years for sure.

  6. This is so helpful! I don't like it when a good pan looks like it is ruined. I have been using a lot of white vinegar lately and it works wonders. You did a great job!

  7. Yay! I'm so glad your beautiful pot was restored to its shiny best.

    Christine, I ruined my Le Crueset dutch oven when I first cooked on a new stove and the burner got hotter than I thought it would--enamel flecks popped everywhere.

    But I do use vinegar constantly to clean pots. The residue from dried beans is the worst to deal with, or chicken that has been poached. I probably need to get some Bar Keepers Friend too.

    Did you skip rice for that meal or make another pot? I probably would have been so mad at myself I would have skipped it!

  8. We have all made that mistake, Christine! BKF is a lifesaver, for sure. I love to use it on the sink every now and then. It makes a huge difference.

    Happy Fall!!
