Lemon is a product that should always be in the kitchen.

It's not just about the beneficial properties and vitamins that citrus fruits contain.

It turns out that it helps to solve some everyday problems.

Cleaning the microwave oven

It is enough to cut the fruit into several pieces and put it in a bowl of water, then put it in the microwave for a few minutes.

The steam from this mixture will soften any stuck-on food or grease, meaning it can be easily removed to leave your appliances clean again.

Eliminating unpleasant odors in the kitchen

If something burns during cooking and you need to urgently get rid of excess odors, and regular ventilation does not help, then you should heat lemon slices in the microwave (just a few seconds), and then leave the plate with them on the table so that the room is filled with a pleasant citrus aroma.

Adding more flavor to dishes

Everyone knows that lemon juice refreshes treats and makes them more appetizing.

To do this, you need to squeeze the juice out of fresh citrus, but if you first put it in the microwave for a few seconds, this will soften the fruit, which means that it will be easier to get the juice.

Earlier we told you how to make an excellent cleaning product from lemon.
