Clean The Bottom of Your Pots or Pans - WORKS EVERY SINGLE TIME

[@HS-wp5vb]

Well done. To increase the effect, I suggest to put the pan into an old plastic bag after spraying. Keep the bag tightly sealed. This will keep the cleaning agent moist throughout the process.

[@Sistahmomma]

Those of you who ask how the pan got that way in the first place obviously don’t cook. I cook every day and scrub my pots and pans. Over time the build up is harder to keep up with. That is why new ones have to be purchased. So, you fast food people that only cook occasionally will have your pristine cookware forever. I have had to buy new cookware numerous times due to wear and tear. Real cooks do that. Thanks to all for offering cleaning solutions. That will ad some extra lifetime but sooner or later replacement will be needed. Also, the inside of pots and pans will deteriorate eventually.

He only did it once and they looked brand new.

[@duffman18]

@@gwarlow no, there's not. They don't know what they're talking about The beauty of a proper Tefal pan is that nothing sticks to the inside of it, even stuff like fried cheese. So you don't ever need to scrub to clean it (and scrubbing it just removed the non-stick coating anyway, which is dangerous because it's highly toxic to eat that coating so you don't want it to flake off into your food, and anyway it won't be non stick anymore once you've done that) Just use normal mild dishwashing detergent on a tefal pan, and only ever use either a soft cloth or a plastic sponge to clean it. That's all it needs. Some people seem to think you have to scrub it really hard to clean a Tefal pan. The only reason they do, is because the first time they ever scrubbed it, all the non-stick coating came off, so it was never non-stick after that. It's baffling as to why people think you need to do that. Like, I mentioned using a cloth, but really you don't even need that. Just soak it in soapy water and rinse it out and it's spotless All my tefal pans I've had for over 10 years, and they're still in perfect condition. It's really not hard to properly take care of them. For the bottom of the pans, yeah, use some proper cleaner. I've seen people recommend all sorts of weird shit, like boiling the bottom of the pans in bleach, but you really don't need to do that, just use oven cleaner like in the video But never ever scrub the inside of a tefal pan. Otherwise you'll need to buy a new one immediately

I learned this trick from my first landlord who provided excellent cleaning instructions to avoid cleaning fees.

Leave it overnight and come back the next day and wash with a mild abrasive pad, if needed. In this way you can clean ALL your dirty pans at once. Spraying into the bag helps contain the fumes, and the EasyOff gets on everything. It works great.

Very nice video; I’ll give it a shot! Thanks for the tips.

[@kkimberly2004YT]

I bet putting it inside a large plastic bag similar to a plastic zip loc bag would have been good, it looks amazing.

[@abdulhai93]

The day i used easy off on my range hood filter, the grease was literally coming off on its own. Its incredible what it can don

[@jeffp5162]

Good video, straight to the point.

[@Tyler_Durden_562]

great video man, I already have that stuff in my cabinet. Might as well give it a try lol

[@ethelryan257]

That was good. If you were to spray the pan thoroughly, put it in a tight black bag and leave it in a really warm place (in the sun, for instance) for eight hours, you'd be shocked how much better the fume-free Easy Off cleans.

Baking soda and vinegar once a month and you wont have to deal with those toxic fumes

[@VanderlyndenJengold]

Yeah, if whatever chemical that is can do that to grime imagine what it's doing to your lungs, skin... environment. I'd avoid it like the plague (unfortunately some people even disbelieve that).

[@sheiliaw.4376]

With a little salt to boot.

[@mikedub628]

Ok will it work if it's been years since it's been on there?

[@edsan9788]

@@mikedub628 yes you might have to do 2 times just like the oven cleaner put a heavy amount of baking soda spray a good soaking of vinegar let it dry a bit then respray to reactivate the baking soda scrub rinse with hot water repeat

Thanks for sharing have a wonderful day.

[@fingers140]

I actually clean the bottom after each use so the gunk doesn't build up...simple! Great method though!👍👍

[@zanpsimer7685]

I’m always amazed kitchens haven’t burned down when seeing the grease on the bottom of some pans.

[@chocolatesouljah]

It's the same method I learned from my kitchen. angel late great Mama! Glad to see it verified here!

[@francesbernard2445]

Thanks for sharing that helpful hint so I can skip doing it in my own home because I hate having to spray anything.

[@ididntknowthatsoididnt6864]

Great job. But I live in ireland and I’ve never seen EASY OFF I wonder what I could use instead. If you know would be helpful thanks 👍🏼

[@debidevalois4881]

Do you have oven cleaner that you spray on? If not someone suggested ammonia.

[@dd1ddee]

Mr muscles oven spray does the same job

[@carolannramos6691]

Wow! I’m going to try this!!!

[@melissabarrett9750]

None of my pans ever looks like the 'before'... They usually always look like the after, because every time I wash mine, I give them a scrub with a steelo pad.

[@foedspaghetti3290]

Same here.

[@jeanmarietodd7457]

All you need is Bar Keepers Friend, my friend. No toxic fumes or voided warranties.

[@wandamcgiboney5141]

You can use it on glass baking dishes ....works great on a lot of things

[@missg.5940]

Could you use it on a white enamel gas stove top. I have tried everything else. Still tough brown gunk!

[@brathwaitelisa]

Thanks. I think I like this method better than the vinegar salt baking soda and squezy

[@cgirl111]

You can use Easy Off on your glass top stove. Spray on thick when you go to bed and use a razor scraper to take it off the next day. I use "no odor" Easy Off. I've done this countless times and my 6 year old stove looks like the day it was first plugged in.

[@mommybear2]

Every time I cook with my All Clad I scrub the bottom with Barkeeper's Friend and any new cooked on residue comes right off, so my pans stay looking beautiful. But keep in mind I don't let it build up. I do this every time I cook. Takes about a minute.

[@toservemen]

Great tip!

I ues a Plastic scouring pad and it doesn't scratch the surface like a metal brillo pad does. You can also damage the surface of a metal pot with a contaminant from the different type of metal in a brillo pad (This is why you NEVER use a steel buffing wheel on stainless parts, as you impregnate the stainless with steel... that rusts... and stains... so for stainless you use stainless, for brass, you have brass (this is also the same for wire brushes). You should also pay attention to the machining pattern of the metal. Often a stainless pot will be 'brushed' in a circular pattern (like the groves in a record), if you scrub across that pattern, (like the hands of a clock) you will leave visible scratches even with a soft plastic scourer (they are not called scourers because they are gentle)... Try and match the direction of the original machining. If you don't really care about scratches.. do you really care about a bit of black grime... Personally I just use a nylon scourer after each use (Inside and out) and have a stainless frying pan that came from a local thrifty shop that looks brand new. (Once clean I also 'Seasoned' it with oil and it is fairly much 'non stick' now so it stays cleaner with only the underneath needing a little attention when a bit of boil over occurs).

[@rosepetals3752]

Wow! Thanks for the help!

[@sarahdeshay1394]

A good idea shared thanks. These people in this comment section need to find something productive to do with their time.

[@UseYourManners123]

Wowzers did you do this outside?

[@toservemen]

Yup

[@managinaicker1128]

Wow amazing I live in South Africa will I be able to get the spray...God bless u 👌💯🙏

[@Mykamania]

How are the lock downs there?

[@afeminame]

@forusfoodies I bet if you placed your pan in the oven at its highest heat, then remove and sprayed it might work even better....And quicker. Thanks for sharing!

[@deborahmorreale9488]

I do the same thing. Only I put it in my oven when I'm cleaning it. Gets both done simultaneously.

[@HarupertBeagleton-dz5gw]

I buy and sell used resturant equipment. I use drain cleaner. That stuff turns thick stuck on grease to liquid almost instantly. Its super harsh though. It does it for the hard thin layers too.

[@hwy138]

the fume free stuff sucks. only use the regular . Have done it for years . I take the pots and pans outside to do it and I also use it on my stove top.

[@maureenmcgrath8169]

I agree. The yellow can only.

[@annakeye]

I just happened to do this last night, and my pan is outside in the air getting 24 hours to do its thing. I also use it on my roasting pans that can end up with build up of general unpleasantness, no matter how much one scrubs it. And yeah, fume free is only any good if you've already got a cleanish oven to begin with.
