How do I clean this pan?

Try soaking in washing powder bold or Ariel particularly good

Treat yourself to a silicone muffin baker.

Hot water from the kettle, washing up soap and SALT!

Put some Ariel bio powder in a jug, whisk in warm water, pour over tin and leave for about 6 hours or overnight. Squeaky clean.

Excellent advice! ?

Put hot water in the pan and add a diswasher tablet - wait - Voila.

With ordinary scrambled eggs stuck to a pan I soak overnight with washing up liquid and then scrape with a dinner knife, blade very flat against the side of the burnt receptacle.

Another advocate of soda crystals here! Very hot water, crystals and a squirt of washing up liquid, leave to soak.

LyndaW You are off to find some morning dew.

I've known that to be code for 'poteen'..... enjoy

Soak it in Biological washing powder solution , I stopped using Biological washing powder for clothes when I saw what it did to a burnt saucepan!!

Have you tried soda crystals in each muffin dip and boiling water poured over? Or just immerse the whole tray in a strong solution of hot water with soda crystals if you have a container big enough.

Astonish (I buy it in Wilkinsons) with a green scouring pad is the best product for removing any stuck on baked stuff.

I have tried the morning dew trick, it didnt work ! try boiling it in water and vinegar of less smelly, fairy platinum washing up liquid

So glad I asked... . Right, off to find a chisel, some oven cleaner and morning dew.

2 days, Jane?!

Yes, Jalima, I think that's what I should have done. Even now, I live and learn...

and the stuck-on food into the food recycling after scraping off with a chisel.

ps no, no, the plastic bag needs to go into one recycling bag, the tin in another!!

Put in a plastic bag, put plastic bag in bin, buy new tin

Upside on the lawn Perhaps it's the action of the morning dew. ??

Squirt it with neat oven cleaner and leave for a few hours.

I have also read (in a woman's magazine, years ago) that leaving it upside down on the lawn overnight loosens it all. Haven't tried that, though. (Perhaps some little animals eat at it when you're not looking)

Next time could I suggest using paper muffin cases

WHAT NEXT TIME? I hear you shout!

Try washing soda and soak for at least 2 days!

Egg is like cement when it's cooked on. If you've cut away the excess egg then I think that it will just take a much longer steeping to get it all softened.

In a situation like this I'd put the muffin tray into a bigger container, a bucket or a basin. Start with warm water and washing up liquid and set it aside until at least tomorrow. Let time do the work.

My favourite spot in underneath the summer bench at the kitchen door.
