A frying pan or pot left unattended on the stove can lead to such an unpleasant problem as soot. The food sticks to the bottom and walls very strongly. As a rule, to get rid of its traces completely, you have to soak and rub the dishes for a long time, making efforts.

But, as OBOZREVATEL found out, there is a much easier way to solve the problem. It was shared on TikTok by Anne Caserta, an expert in life hacks for all occasions, who maintains a profile under the nickname @_ceo_of_randomness.

According to her, this advice was given to her by her grandmother. The cleaning life hack can even cope with stubborn stains of burnt fat. All you need is water and a little soap. Your usual dishwashing detergent will do just fine.

Fill the dirty dish with water and add a few drops of soap. Put the vessel on the stove and heat it up so that the soapy water slowly boils in it for a few minutes. All that remains after that is to cool the object, rinse it under running water and wipe it off. The dirt will come off very easily, and there will be no scratches on the inside of the pan or pot.

In the comments, Ann gave some advice on cleaning cast iron cookware. According to her, this life hack is also suitable for it, but after cleaning, you will need to wipe the dish very well and then carefully rub a few drops of vegetable oil on the inner surface.
