How can I remove olive oil burned onto a metal frying pan?

Soak overnight with soapy water, as the soap will break it down a little. In the morning, use as hot a water temperature as you can stand, and more dishsoap, and scrub with the most abrasive cleaning pad that particular pan can handle. If it is a coated non-stick pan, you will want to use something delicate, like a scrubbing sponge, but if it is something like cast iron, break out the big guns and use that SOS pad... It takes elbow grease to remove baked on greases, but it will come off...How can I remove olive oil burned onto a metal frying pan?
Get the pan a little wet then scrub with baking soda.How can I remove olive oil burned onto a metal frying pan?
If it is the heavy black pan, you don't want to remove it. It protects the finish and helps to not have hot spots. Just wash the inside as you do dishes, and wipe the outside.
When all else failed [on my expensive stainless steel fry pan] I got out my orbital sander and sanded away, finished it off with s.o.s. pad and good as new. The oil was burned on so badly my only choice was to throw it away. That was two years ago and it is still in the family.
I was gonna say the same thing, do a real good soaking the night before that really does work, then scrub it off with any kind of pad like steel wool or chore boys with lots of soap and hot water. It should work and may take a while.
make a paste of vinegar and cream of tartar, put it on the pan and let it set for a few minutes and it should come off
You will have to soak it over night with a paste of salt, baking soda, and Dawn dish detergent (it breaks it down).





Lastly add a little bit of water - be careful not to dilute the solution to much, just enough to get the mixture going.





Once you've entered to the next morn., kind of work with it using your dishcloth using pressure to help release the stain. If it still persist pour some of the solution out, and add a little vingar %26amp; a little more salt so that the grit from the salt can be your mild abrassive) to help romove the rest..........and your pan will look pratically new!!





*I personally use this method myself when I run into this problem.
As with anything that has burnt onto a metal pan, I will soak overnight, or place water in the pan and allow pan to heat up on stove top.. then let it soak. You may wish to add a bit of dawn dish soap. Scrub lightly, and re-soak again, if need be, and continue to do so, until you get the mess out.


Good luck!
fill it about half full of soapy water and simmer it on the burner for about 30 minutes then rinse it well. should be ok.
If it is stainless steel (without a coating), getting some SOS pads and some gloves. Then scrub a dub dub.
Soak it in metal cleaner for a day or two. Use bleach and then thoroughly wash it.
soak overnight with a tsp of baking soda %26amp; enough water to cover the burnt area, then scrub %26amp; wash it off.
