this seems to me like a tip that may not need to be shared, but someone once enlightened me with its use, so i am guessing that someone out there may benefit from it.
i hate to find this when i'm cleaning up after a meal.
it happens to all of us - no matter how nonstick a pan is (or was) it just happens. but, rather than soaking and scrubbing and soaking again, there is an easier way!
add water. that's it. just add a little water to your messy pan.
then turn the heat back on. way on.
as the water heats up (and starts simmering), use your appropriate utensil to stir up the gunk that has adhered to your pan. i always use nylon or wood/bamboo to preserve mine...
once all the stuff has been dislodged (it should only take a few seconds), pour the water from your pan, and find this...
you just saved yourself (or your husband or designated child) quite a bit of elbow grease :)
Great thinking. My sink is currently housing one such disaster.
