Scorched pan-Though no treat
ment will make a badly burned pan
like new again, many pans that look
hopeless may be restored to use if
proper care is taken in cleaning.
The first rule in dealing with a
burned pan is: Let it cool gradually.
Never pour cold water into hot dry
pan, for this is likely to make the
metal buckle and leave an unsteady
pan.
Soaking and gentle but persistent
securing are the safest way of clean
ing off burned material, but these
take time. For securing use fine steel
wool, which is again appearing in
stores, or securing powder. Use a
wooden spoon when scraping is nee
cssary, never a knife or other sharp
utensil.
When the pan has cooled, fill it half
full of cold water and heat the water
gradually to boiling. Baking soda add
ed to the water may help soften the
burned material. After heating,
scrape out looscncd material, add
more water to the pan, and repeat the
heating process.
