Hi,
I burnt some food onto my stainless steel pan! In searching for a method to get it out on youtube, I came across videos suggesting boiling water mixed with vinegar or baking soda, or both.
Now, I get it that either the acid from vinegar or the base from soda can aid in cleaning the pan, but I fail to see how adding vinegar AND baking soda at the same time would work. Wouldn’t they just neutralise each other and you end up with …. water? I feel like together they would work less efficiently than either one of them alone, since in essence it’s equivalent to adding whatever amount of either one that is in surplus.

It doesn’t. People who tell you to mix it together failed high school chemistry. It just creates fizzy salt water. It is effective in cleaning fabrics or carpets if you soak the stain in a baking soda solution and pour vinegar over it.
