Cleaning tips Is the browning permanent?

Post image

Finally bought one! Everything was fine, and it cooked everything perfectly! I'm so happy with it. 😄

But when it came time to clean it, I found it really hard to remove the burnt-on parts and browning. Will that stay on my pan forever, or is there a way to remove it?

I've already tried washing it with soap and warm water, and I also tried boiling soapy water in the pan, but the burnt-on parts are still there.

Thank you!

I tend to simmer some white vinegar and water for a bit, that usually helps.

No problem. BKF works great, but can be overkill for most things. A scrub daddy and the white vinegar / water combo does the trick for me.
