How to quickly wash a dirty grater: a popular fruit will help

Washing a grater only seems easy at first glance. It is not so easy to clean it after colorful vegetables and fruits or greasy cheese. They leave stains, but you can not rub them with coarse abrasives, because they will blunt the grater, and soft cloths or sponges are problematic, because they will leave on the object a lot of scraps erased by the blade.

OBOZREVATEL looked into how you can easily and effectively return the grater to its original form. It can be helped by an ordinary fruit.

And it is a lemon, the juice of which is rich in natural fruit acids. They effectively dissolve grease and organic impurities. The main condition - the juice must be fresh.

To take advantage of its properties, it is enough to take a lemon, cut it in half and carefully rub the entire surface of the grater with it. The juice should be left to act for about 10 minutes. During this time, it will effectively dissolve the accumulated dirt. Next, the device will be left to rinse under warm water and dry it.

Heavy dirt can be removed with salt. To do this, first treat the surface of the grater with lemon juice, and then sprinkle with salt. Leave it in this form for two hours. Then the salt is gently wiped off with a soft sponge with dishwashing liquid in the direction along the blades. And then it is rinsed and dried.

Experts advise not to put off washing the grater for later, because prolonged contact with contaminants can cause corrosion even of stainless steel. Also, you should not wait until the item can be loaded into the dishwasher. It is better to treat it with lemon juice immediately after use. In this case, the grater will not show rust.
