Your stomach doesn't burn fat. Your body does.
If you mean when does your body burn fat, it's simple. When there is cortisol in your system from a stressful workout and your muscle mass is being used and maintained, you will burn fat. If cortisol is released but your muscles aren't being used much as in steady state cardio, muscle will be burned.
Focus on short, intense workouts and use your muscles rather than steady, boring cardio. This will make you fat and weak.

Does doing sit ups before burning stomach fat build muscle around the fat making it a lot more difficult to burn later?
When building muscle, you are just making the muscle fibers stronger and bigger, they arnt multiplying. The amount of muscle mass you have does not matter how difficult it is to burn fat. Fat is fat. Muscle is muscle. The more fat you have, the longer it will take to burn that off. Another thing, fat is generally burned off all around the body, not just in a concentrated area such as the stomach. If you are trying to burn off stomach fat, intense running will work better than doing situps. And if you are trying to get your abs stronger/harder, do situps using a weight to decroease the amount of time it will take
