10 things you always cleaned wrong. Expert advice
- Reusable bags
Did you know that eco-friendly shopping bags need to be washed frequently? Since their use is daily and they come into contact with dirty vegetables, carts, the trunk of our car, resting on the floor and much more, it is advisable to wash them often and with baking soda to eliminate most of the germs that reside there.
The cutting board
To properly clean the cutting board simply use salt and lemon, rub well and rinse well, this way even the smallest particles will be removed and the wood will not come into contact with any chemical solution.
Kitchen cloths or towels
Luxury clothing designer, Nancy Koltes, recommends not using fabric softener when washing towels. In fact, these create an enveloping patina around the clothing that traps dirt and makes the towel less absorbent. It is preferable to replace the fabric softener with white vinegar.
Baking sheets
To clean your pans thoroughly and thoroughly, prepare a solution of 1/4 cup baking soda and add a little hydrogen peroxide, just enough to make a dough. The result will surprise you 🙂
5.Trash
It is important to wash the trash can at least once a week. The waste you collect in plastic bags can leak and dirty the container. Also, instead of using any detergent you buy at the supermarket, you can use homemade detergent with vinegar or citrus peel to wash it.
6.Coffee maker
A really useful tip is to boil white vinegar instead of water in the coffee maker itself once a month. It will not only be sanitized but also descaled, thus avoiding those dangerous residues that can clog your moka pot.
