How do I remove burned herbs from pot?

Hello. I was boiling herbs in a pot of water to steep them and it seemed that it got too hot and boiled out all of the water and the herbs and whatever burned black on to the pot. It is NOT coming off! What can I do?

You might laugh at me.What I do is put water in the pan and put it back to cooking.It might take a while but it will work.

1. From Pioneer Thinking: slice up an onion put it in the pan and add enough water to cover the burnt part, put on the stove and heat until the water is boiling, then take off and leave to cool. Let it stand for a few hours, the black should then come off fairly easily.
2. From Ehow.com: Wash away as much of the food as possible, using cold water for eggs, chocolate and starch-based foods. Fill the pot with water. Add 1 to 2 tsp. dishwashing liquid and bring to a boil. Simmer for 10 minutes, then cover the pot, turn off the heat and leave the pot to soak for 30 minutes. With a wooden spoon, scrape away as much of the burned food as possible. Rinse well. If burned areas still remain, cover them completely with a generous amount of baking soda. Drizzle in just enough water to create a thick paste, smearing the paste up the sides of the pot if needed. Set aside for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. Without rinsing the pot, add 3 parts water to 1 part distilled vinegar to cover the burned food by at least 2 inches (5 cm). Boil for 10 minutes and then leave overnight. Repeat steps 2 through 5 as needed.
3. From ThrifyFun: Put hot water in the pan along with some vinegar and let it sit overnight. This also works well with cleaning your stove top burner pans.

add a little ammonia and water and let sit for a few hours in a sealed trash bag then scrub and wash in the normal way …..

I would try hot water with some baking soda. Let it sit. Try scrapping off the black stuff with a plastic spatula. Baking soda has a way in getting the hardest stuff clean.
