Don't! Here's a simple way to make them clean again

Cast iron skillets are versatile cookware that requires special care just like a baby.

If you have burnt food that is stuck:

Use a cloth to rub the paste around the pan
Dispose the cleaning paste and dry clean with a kitchen towel.

Pro tips

Never soak your iron skillets in soap water.
Do not scrub the pan (to preserve the non stick coating)

17. Sterilize & Disinfect Your Sponge

Kitchen sponge tend to degrade fast.

And quickly find its way to the trash can...

With baking soda, you can revive dirty smelly sponge and use them for a longer time.

Here's the steps:

Add 1 tbsp of baking soda to 300 ml warm water
Soak the sponge in the mixture for 3 hours
Increase the amount if you have more sponge to clean

This will remove the foul smell from your sponge and you'll have a fresh new sponge for use.

18. Cleaning Your Oven Racks

If your grill is stained with thick oil and grease that is impossible to remove then you need some dawn dish soap.

Start by mixing filling up large bucket or kitchen sink or bathtub with hot water
Add 3-4 tablespoon of dawn soap (remember to stir).
Soak your BBQ grill in the bucket for about 20-30 minutes
Remove and wipe clean with a Sponge

The grease and char should come off pretty easily

You'll have fresh and clean grill bars again for your next bake!

19. Remove Strong Odor From Your Hands

After handling fish, garlic and onions, you've probably have undesirable smells on your hands...

No worries. Here's what you can do!

Squeeze some lemon juice and add some baking soda to your hands
and rub them together for a minute.
Rinse with water and dry with a towel

The nasty odor should disappear immediately.

20. Clean Your Blender in Under a Minute

After multiple uses, your blender will start to look old and cloudy

This is caused by hard water stains that eventually build up in the blender

As always, you can use white vinegar for hard water problems!

Fill the blender with warm water until it is half full
Add a cup of vinegar and a few drops of dish soap.
Leave the blender running for 2 minutes and rinse it clean.

You should be able to see through the blender, just like when you used it for the first time.

21. Sterilize Your Kitchen Towels

Your kitchen rag is probably second to your cleaning sponge when it comes to being dirty and stinky!

And you probably use them everyday to wipe your countertop or dry your hands!

So let's keep them clean in 3 simple steps

Boil a kettle of water
Add your kitchen rag into a container
Add 1 cup of vinegar and 2 tbsp of lemon into the container
Pour the hot boiling water into the container and let the rag soak overnight
Rinse and Dry.

Just like that!
