A little prevention — in the form of this eight-pack of stove burner covers — will save you so much time in the kitchen. Instead of hunkering down to scrub the stove after a boil-over or spill, just pull out the cover and rinse it in the sink. They are Teflon coated so they clean up easily and quickly. If one gets too dirty to clean, toss it and replace it. Your stove will stay pristine underneath.
