Keeping the stove nipples clean may seem like a slow task, especially when fat accumulates and conventional products do not offer good results. But there is a homely, easy to prepare and low -cost solution that is gaining space for its effectiveness and simplicity: the combination of white vinegar with thin salt, according to the newspaper El Chronicler.
An effective and affordable mixture
According to the disclosed method, this combination not only removes the most difficult dirt, but also dismissing aggressive chemicals that can damage materials or affect health.
White vinegar, due to its acidity, acts as a disinfectant and degreasing, while salt acts as a smooth abrasive, helping to release burnt residues without scratching the surface according to the above source.
How to apply step by step
Before you start, it is essential to ensure safety, closing gas output and removing the grids or moving parts from the stove. In a bowl, it mixes in equal parts white vinegar and thin salt. The solution should be applied directly to the nozzles with the help of a sponge or cloth, covering the dirtiest zones well.
It should be left to act between five to ten minutes for fat to soften. Then just rub with a sponge, remove the residues and rinse with warm water. If they remain spots, the process can be repeated. When all pieces are dry, just return to them and open the gas output again.
Other natural alternatives
For those who prefer to vary or have no vinegar at home, there are other equally popular combinations. One of them joins lemon juice with coarse salt: just squeeze two lemons, mix with salt, apply, wait ten minutes, rub and rinse.
Another possibility is to use sodium baking soda with hot water, letting act a few minutes before rubbing. There are also those who use the bicarbonate vinegar mix, taking advantage of the effervescence to release the most resistant fat, according to the newspaper.
Small tricks like these, applied regularly, can help keep the kitchen cleaned and free of waste without resorting to more aggressive chemicals.
