When you find that the food is burnt to the point that it sticks to the pan, wash the pan immediately so that the crust doesn't become stubborn.

Brilio.net - Cooking requires skill and patience. When processing food, sometimes it doesn't always work, sometimes there are failures such as burning. As a result, like it or not, the food ends up being thrown away. Not only that, usually burnt food also sticks to the bottom of the pan used. If you leave it like that, the burnt stain will crust over, making it even more difficult to clean.

The burnt crust on the bottom of the pan makes it look dirty. Even if used, the burnt crust will contaminate the food in the pan. The taste of the food did not match expectations.

Therefore, it is a good idea when cooking food until it burns, clean the pan immediately. Some people even deliberately boil water in a pan so that all the crust in it falls off without leaving it. After heating for a while, all the burnt crust is easy to scrape off. Just set it aside then wash the pan as usual. As a result, the pan is clean as new again.

But not just using the heating method on the stove, it turns out an Instagram user @kalaboo.home showed an effective way to get rid of burnt crust on a pan using another method. In his video upload, he appears to rely on two kitchen ingredients to clean his pan. Curious about how?

Reported by BrilioFood from Instagram @kalaboo.home on Wednesday (15/5), put the pan full of burnt crust in the sink. Then pour hot water into it until it covers all the burnt crust in the pan.

Without having to wait for it to cool, immediately add two kitchen ingredients as cleaning agents, namely baking soda and dish soap. You don't need a lot, just add these two kitchen ingredients in sufficient quantities. Stir then leave the pan for 15-20 minutes so that the two ingredients work optimally.

After letting it sit for 15-20 minutes, immediately scrape the bottom of the pan using a spatula. Without expending extra effort, all the burnt crust seems to peel off by itself.

Tricks for using a new aluminum pan so it doesn't stick.

Using a new aluminum pan to prevent sticking can be done with a few simple tricks. Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Seasoning the pan:
- Wash the pan with soap and warm water to remove factory residue
- Dry the pan with a clean cloth
- Heat the pan on the stove over medium heat for a few minutes
Add a small amount of vegetable oil (such as coconut oil, olive oil, or canola oil) to the pan, enough to coat the inside surface
- Spread the oil evenly over the entire surface of the pan using a clean cloth or tissue
- Leave the pan with oil on the stove for about 10-15 minutes over low heat
- Remove the pan from the stove and let it cool completely
- Once cool, wipe off excess oil using tissue or a clean cloth.

2. Daily use and maintenance:
- Always use a little oil or butter when cooking to keep the surface smooth.
- Avoid cooking food at very high temperatures because this can cause the food to stick more easily.
- After use, let the pan cool before washing it with warm soapy water and a soft sponge. Avoid using rough cleaning tools to avoid scratching the surface.
- Dry the pan immediately after washing to prevent water stains.

3. Additional tips:
- Do not use aluminum pans to cook acidic foods (such as tomatoes or lemons) too often, as the acid can react with the aluminum and damage the coating.
- Store the pan in a dry place and avoid stacking the pan on top of each other without protection to prevent scratches.

By following these steps, you can keep your aluminum pans in good condition and reduce the chance of food sticking while cooking.
