Default "blued" stainless steel pan

My wife, quite unlike her, put a saucepan on the heat with no contents.
while is is clean it has spoilt the finish, from brownish to blue,
inside and out. Is there any remedy please?

The brown to blue colours are merely oxides formed on the surface, fine wire wool should remove them.

Do you need to do anything?

If it still cooks and doesn't poison you by leaching out metals then why
does it matter if it is blued?

Steel woks get blued, then have oil burnt on them, as a matter of course
when they are being "run in".

Cheers

Has she said "That's your fault" or will she say that later in the month:-)?

What I'm slightly concerned about is the acceptance of 'brownish' as
being the normal colour for stainless :-)

You accept blackish as the normal colour for non-stick pans.
