Comes off just fine with Easy Off Heavy Duty Oven Cleaner. ;-)
It's not just for ovens.....
While I'd not EVER Consider cleaning my cast iron pan with it (polymerized oil is what makes it "seasoned"), the cast iron lid was gettig a bit cruddy and since it does not matter if IT is non-stick, I put it in the sink and sprayed it down, and let it sit for about 2 hours.
Ok, I've been up since about 3 am and went on a cleaning frenzy in the some salmon for my housemate for brunch later today and made up some mixed veggies consisting of sliced bok choy, zuchinni, red onion, straw mushrooms, button mushrooms and brocolli, all dressed with grape seed oil, a little braggs liquid aminos, fresh grated ginger, garlic, salt free lemon pepper, white pepper and some pooake powder.
After two hours, I took a pot scrubby to the lid and the oven cleaner had done most of the work. It was no longer black, but a pale silver in color. Did not mean to clean it THAT well, but I'm sure it'll turn black again in a few weeks like it's supposed to be. ;-)
At least it's clean. -- Om.
