Anyone who has ever cooked a dish knows it: food burns on the stove. Sauces or milk in particular are unfortunately very prone to this incident. But what to do? And how do you get rid of this smell? We have a tip here:

If food has burnt in the pot, you don't have to throw it away immediately. Simply transfer it to another pot (but without much scraping, if possible only transfer the top layer), so you can continue cooking as normal.
Taste some dishes beforehand; if the dish tastes burnt, unfortunately you can no longer use it and have to start all over again.
Quickly eliminate the smell of burning
