Cleaning up after making a meal can be a right pain.
And when it comes to washing up nightmares, burnt-on rice is one of the worst offenders, and you can only leave something to soak for so long before you risk being accused of laziness.
Given how much cooking wear and tear our utensils get, cleaning them requires a serious amount of elbow grease at times, the Mirror reports.
So it's with some relief that one amazing tip has come to light.
Taking to cleaning community, Mums Who Clean , one mum posed the question about getting stubborn burnt rice off a saucepan.
Five things to consider when choosing a quality floor
Several suggestions were made but one which kept popping up repeatedly was as follows:
"Put a dishwashing tablet in the bottom and cover with boiling hot water. Leave over night and it requires zero scrubbing."
The words "zero scrubbing" are music to our ears indeed.
Some members of the group even went as far as to say you didn't need to leave the pesky pan overnight, adding: "Boil dishwashing tablet and water. This works and no scrubbing required."

"Dishwashing tablet with hot water did the trick. No scrubbing needed! Thanks mums!!!" she replied, clearly chuffed.
