The best way to clean a non-stick pan is to start by washing it with warm soapy water and a soft sponge or cloth. After cleaning it with the soapy water, rinse the pan with warm water and let it air-dry or dry it with a clean, soft cloth. For stubborn or burnt-on residue, you can use a baking soda paste. To make a baking soda paste, mix equal parts baking soda and water in a bowl. Apply it to the pan and then scrub with a soft sponge or cloth. Rinse the pan with warm water and dry it before using it again.
