Good, same here—always. (Unless it involves disappearing snacks.) Lucky for us, our co-founder, CEO, and resident pan-scrubbing expert Amanda Hesser agreed to share her top tips for making enameled pans look good-as-new with just one ingredient, plus some water and elbow grease.
Check it out:
Do try this trick at home.
What you’ll need:
- Bar Keepers Friend
- A sponge with a pot-scrubbing side
- Warm water
Amanda’s five-step method:
- Identify which pan is in dire need of TLC.
- Rinse the pan under water (this helps the Bar Keepers Friend from falling off the pan).
- Sprinkle about a tablespoon of Bar Keepers Friend on a small portion of the pan bottom.
- Using a damp sponge, get your elbow grease on and get scrubbing! I like to work on an area, make some progress, then move on until the pan bottom is mostly clean. Then I’ll rinse it so I can give myself a brief pat on the back. Then, I reload the Bar Keepers Friend and get off the last stuck bits.
- After getting the pan bottom clean, I’ll move to the sides and then to the handle. The most important part is to make sure you’re using pressure—stuck bits don’t come off without serious friction, no matter how caustic the scrubbing powder is—and remind yourself regularly that this counts as your workout for the day.
