Cooking and eating at home is a must for every household. Nowadays, eating out is more and more expensive, and it is not necessarily clean. It is better to buy food and cook with confidence. Nowadays, even young people are starting to cook by themselves more and more, but experienced people will notice a problem: after a long period of frequent use, the bottom of our wok will always have a layer of black ash, which is greasy, thick and sticky, and the whole bottom of the wok will be pasted like "the surface of the moon", which is very uncomfortable to look at and can't be brushed with a steel ball brush.

In fact, the "disadvantages" of oil dirt are not only unsightly, but also will be burned by flames when cooking, and it will also release a lot of smoke, silica and other substances, which is especially harmful to the respiratory system of cooks, no less than lampblack. And sometimes the bottom of the pot accidentally touches other places, which is a layer of black putty, which is very unsanitary. Therefore, cleaning up this layer of "black ash" is something that must be done often. We learned a trick from the master pot maker. We can remove the "black ash" from the bottom of the pot only by using common items at home without spending more than 1 cent.

1, adsorption

First, let's simply flush the bottom of the pot, and then control the amount of water slightly, being careful not to splash it on us. Then we spread a thin layer of flour on the bottom surface of the pot and sprinkle a little salt. The contact between flour and boiler ash can play a certain adsorption role, and it can become sticky when it meets water. Mixing salt can also increase friction, and it will be more convenient to clean later.

2. Softening erosion

Then we pour a layer of white vinegar evenly on the bottom of the pot and let it cover the whole bottom of the pot. The master told us that white vinegar has certain acidity and can react with boiler ash to soften "black ash" to some extent. Next, put the bottom of the pot aside and let it stand.

Step 3: Wipe

Let it stand for about ten minutes, and then we can squeeze some toothpaste at the bottom of the pot. There are many small particles and whitening ingredients in toothpaste, which can increase the friction when wiping and make the bottom of the pot brighter. Now just wipe the bottom of the pot with a scouring pad. As you wipe it bit by bit, you will see the "black ash" at the bottom of the pot slowly "fall off" and restore its original appearance. If the boiler ash is heavy, it is recommended to brush it lightly with steel balls, not too hard, otherwise the coating on the bottom of the boiler may be damaged.
