Brilio.net - Pans are one of the cooking utensils that are often used. Its shape is concave inward, making this cooking utensil often used to boil water or prepare soupy dishes. Because of this function, it is not surprising that some people have pans of various sizes and materials.
After use, the pan must be washed immediately. Because if not, stubborn stains will harden and become more difficult to remove. Especially at the bottom (bottom) of the pan which is directly exposed to the stove fire.
Knowing this, a number of people usually immediately scrub the pan with a baking soda solution. After rubbing it for a while, the burnt crust on the bottom of the pan immediately peeled off by itself. The pan will be clean and shiny again.
But there's no need to worry if the stock of baking soda is running low at home, because there are other cleaning agents that can be used. Just like what Instagram user @ummubalqishaura did. In his video upload, he appears to rely on simple ingredients to clean his pan .
This effective way to remove burnt crust on the bottom of a pan only uses 1 additional kitchen ingredient.
The main ingredient used to clean pans is charcoal. This black ingredient turns out to be effective in removing burnt crust on the bottom of the pan. You don't need a lot, to clean one pan, you can use charcoal about 10 cm long.

If so, put the charcoal in plastic. For maximum results, add one kitchen ingredient, namely lime. Squeeze 1/2 lime over the plastic. Then cover the plastic and grind the charcoal.

After grinding for a while, remove the charcoal from the plastic. Don't forget, filter the charcoal first so that no lumps enter the container. Next, add the juice of 1/2 of the lime. Stir until completely mixed.

So, just apply the cleaning solution that has been made to the butt surface of the pan. Leave it for a few moments then scrub with a wire sponge. Without expending extra effort, the burnt crust on the bottom of the pan immediately peeled off.
"This is because charcoal has abrasive properties which are able to erode and absorb the scale that sticks to the surface of the pan," he explained, quoted by BrilioFood from Instagram @ummubalqishaura on Thursday (25/4).

Finally, just rinse the pan with clean water. As a result, the pan is maximally clean and there is no burnt crust at all on the bottom.

How to quickly light charcoal to grill satay.
To quickly light charcoal to grill satay, you can use the following methods.
1. Use ignition fluid.
Use ignition fluid such as special ignition fluid for charcoal or ignition fluid for barbecues. Pour the ignition fluid evenly over the charcoal that has been arranged in the stove or bowl. Make sure to follow the instructions for use listed on the ignition fluid packaging. After pouring in the liquid, allow some time to soak into the charcoal before lighting it.
2. Use a charcoal starter.
Charcoal starter is a solid product that can burn charcoal quickly. Place the charcoal starter in the middle of the pile of charcoal that has been arranged in the stove or bowl, then light it with a match or other ignition tool. The charcoal starter will burn quickly and ignite the surrounding charcoal.
3. Use an ignition tool.
You can also use a ignition device such as a gas lighter or electric lighter to light the charcoal. Point the igniter at the charcoal and light it using the button or switch provided. Make sure to be careful when using ignition tools and do not let children play with them.
4. Use newspaper.
Roll the newspaper into a ball or roll, then place it in the middle of the pile of charcoal. Light the newspaper using a match or other ignition device. The newsprint will burn quickly and ignite the surrounding charcoal.
Once the charcoal is lit, let the charcoal burn until it becomes smoky and smoldering before you start cooking the satay on it. Be sure to use appropriate safety equipment when lighting charcoal, such as heat-resistant gloves and do not let children around open flames. Always pay attention to safety when lighting charcoal to grill satay or other food.
