In the kitchen, any housewife tries to do without unnecessary chemicals, even when it comes to cleaning and tidying up kitchen utensils.
One of the challenges is to tidy up the cutting board after cleaning fish or onions, which leave a persistent smell. Beets are no less troublesome.
After cutting beets, stains remain on wooden and plastic cutting boards.
There is no particular harm in this, but it does make the utensils look untidy.
It is not always possible to remove stains using household chemicals.
Usually in such cases, housewives are offered soda or vinegar to clean the surface.
But these products won’t solve the problem as well as vegetable oil.
How to proceed
Apply a little vegetable oil to the stained surface and leave it for 10-15 minutes.
Then wipe the board with a napkin and pour boiling water over the stained area.
After this, you can apply a little detergent to the sponge and wash the board.
This is a completely safe way to clean wooden and plastic cutting boards.
It allows you to save on the purchase of expensive household chemicals.
At the same time, you won’t have to worry about the remnants of harmful substances entering your body along with your food.
