What's the best way to remove burnt popcorn from the bottom of a stainless steel pot ?

Answer 1

Use cascade dishwasher detergent. It's coarse enough to break through the burnt areas. If you don't want to scrub, soak the bottom of the burnt pan with a little warm water and Cascade. Otherwise, just scrub a little cascade and it will clean right up.

Good Luck!

Answer 2

The only thing that has helped to some degree was Easy Off oven cleaner. I clean all my pots, pans and burner plates with this. Works most of the time, but now one pot is only for popcorn too:-)

Answer 3

Pour half a cup of vinegar and water to cover and leave it overnight. Then take a SOS pad and clean the burned popcorn off the pan. If the pan has teflon in it use a fiber plastic scrubby.

Answer 4

Boil Water with 5 tablespoons of Baking Soda and then let sit overnight. It should come off easy with an SOS pad.

Answer 5

soak it in hot water overnight, then use a wire pan scrubber or sos pad. If it's a cheap pan it's probably too much trouble and you should just throw it out. It will never be the same after that.

Answer 6

Try either a steel wool pad (SOS or Brillo) or a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. Good luck!

Answer 7

Soak it for a few hours in water and then scrub it off with an S.O.S pad. It's steel wool with cleanser in it.

Answer 8

usually if you sit on the stove with hot water and cook for a while making sure its real hot turn off but soap and a little bleach in pan should come off

Answer 9

Put liquid dish soap in it and boil for a while, it will help loosen it all up. You still have to scrub a bit though.

Answer 10

pour 3 cups vinegar and 1 cup baking soda, it will foam up, but let it set overnight and it will work most if not all of it out.
