A simple method to clean even the dirtiest blender bowl: no dirt, no odor

All kinds of foods end up in the blender bowl, from fruit to meat. As a result, it mixes various microorganisms that can multiply without proper care, which means that keeping it clean is an important part of hygiene.

Simply washing the bowl with your usual dishwashing detergent may not be enough. The smell and taste of food can remain on its walls and be passed on to the next dish. That's why OBOZ.UA tells you how to make sure that no residue, odors, or bacteria remain on the dish.

All you need is an ordinary lemon. The acid in its composition is an excellent cleanser that can dissolve even stubborn dirt and has antibacterial properties.

The easiest way to clean your blender with lemon is to squeeze a little lemon juice into a bowl filled with warm water and then turn it on. To enhance the effect of this cleaning, you can also add two tablespoons of baking soda to the mixture. The active circulation of this solution in the bowl will clean the walls well and even disinfect them.

You can also put a few slices of lemon with the skin on, but with the seeds removed, and add a few drops of dishwashing detergent. Turn on the blender for a few seconds, then drain the liquid, rinse the container, pour a little water into it, and turn on the appliance again for a few seconds. Finally, rinse the bowl again under the stream. It should be completely clear and smell fresh. You'll also get the blades of the appliance clean.

This is how it works: the citric acid in the fruit and the oils in its rind remove grease and stains, neutralize odors, and leave a fresh scent. That's why lemons can be used to clean other items in the kitchen, such as the microwave, dishwasher, and refrigerator.
