During use, almost any dish becomes covered with a sticky, greasy film and dirt.
The kettle is always within reach, so it is often subject to greasy splashes, food particles and other debris.
On top of all this, there is also soot. Wise housewives do not waste their energy and do not rub the kettle for half an hour and do not use an iron brush, which can leave scratches.
There is a different approach to solving this problem. It is much easier to clean the outside of a stainless steel kettle if you boil it in a larger container.
How to clean a stainless steel kettle
First, prepare a saucepan in which to place the kettle, and then fill it with water. The liquid should cover its entire surface.
Add a little dishwashing liquid to the water. Place the pan on the fire and boil for about 15 minutes.
Then remove the dishes from the stove and let them sit for 10 minutes. When the kettle has cooled down a bit, carefully remove it and wash off any remaining dirt with a sponge. At this point, the surface will still be hot, so the fat will be easy to remove.
After washing, the kettle will need to be rinsed in cold water and wiped dry. After that, it will shine like new.
An important nuance
If the kettle has plastic parts, pour less water. These elements, such as the handle, whistle, lid, may melt. Boiling water should only affect stainless steel areas.
