Re: OT: Burnt inside of stainless inside again--SOLUTION NOW

[Guest guest]

Carol -

Quite often if you fill up the pot with water and add a couple of

handfuls of backing soda, let water come to a boil and boil for awhile,

the baking soda will clean off the burnt stuff. I've done this

before with small pans and it always worked - don't know about a big

pot.

Recapping: Pot burnt inside

perhaps from tomatoes or cabbage...hot boiling water didn't clean

it....

I just received a tip and this person said it works. May have to

buy KETCHUP. Wonder what is in there that would make it work.

Here's her note:

" let the entire burnt area w/ KETCHUP yes ketchup & let sit

24-48... " She said she couldn't believe it either.

Hugs,

HI , Did you mean baking "powder?" Thanks for the tip. I need to boil the pot again, then I assume boil the baking "powder" if that is the case, for it get loose...a pot is a pot, but it's stainless so want to know I am doing the right thing. Thanks. carolg Landes <L@...> wrote: Carol -Quite often if you fill up the pot with water and add a couple of handfuls of backing soda, let water come to a boil and boil for awhile, the baking soda will clean off the burnt stuff.

I said vinegar because that would probably be the active ingredient in

ketchup.

, Think you are also right on the "baking soda" but also I know baking "powder" and vinegar give that fizzle too. I was thinking of trying the ketchy just because it sounds interesting but if so, it's tomorrow before I buy any. Gosh, I remember the ketchup and potato days but it's so long ago so my temptation to hit the bottle and also gulp it down is gone.
