Getting rid of the stuck food from the bottoms of your pots and pans is essential to keeping your dishwasher working properly and making sure everything comes out sparklingly clean. A simple hack to remove the really tough food involves dryer sheets and boiling water.
Simply lay two dryer sheets on the bottom of your pan and pour a good amount of boiling water over the top. Leave to sit for around two hours before emptying. The food will scrape right off and the pan will be ready to be popped in the dishwasher!
