Cucumber, as well as tomato brine, contains a large amount of organic acids.
When heated, these “components” corrode limescale and even rust.
Now, armed with this knowledge, you yourself can answer the question of what the contents of canned goods can be used for.
The answer is obvious: the liquid can be used, for example, to clean a kettle.
Therefore, do not rush to pour out the liquid after preparing the preparations.
Instead, strain the brine through a sieve to remove any vegetable or spice bits, then pour it into the teapot.
Place the pot on the stove and turn on the heat to bring the contents to a boil – after the first boil, you will notice that the limescale has significantly decreased.
However, we will not deceive you - you can find other uses for the brine, especially after the New Year holidays, while the kettle can be cleaned with citric acid, which will cope with this task even better.
Earlier we talked about why you should add butter to borscht.
