Burnt saucepan!

[domesticsluttery]

I made some strawberry jam this morning, but it caught on the bottom and has burnt on teh pan.

I have got most of it off using biological washing powder and warming it again on the hob, but there is a stubborn bit on one side that is refusing to budge.

Anyone got any ideas how to shift it? It is a reasonably good quality saucepan so I don't want to ruin it.

Seem to remember that coke gets burnt material off saucepans.

Pour coca-cola into the pan, covering as much of the burnt part as you can.

Put the saucepan on the stove. Turn onto high until coca-cola boils.

Empty the coca-cola, and the burnt parts should wash right off. Repeat if necessary for stubborn pans.

Ooh thanks. I'll pop to the shop and get some this afternoon and give it a try.

There was a thread on here yesterday all about the wonders of Vim.

I must have missed that, will have a look. I have to admit that I don't spend a lot of time in Good Housekeeping (hence the name and the burnt saucepan!)

White vinegar heated in the pan with some water should do the trick it's acid like coke cheaper too!

Brilliant, I've got some of that!

giod DS i tried ALL of this
