Many good cooking tools can help you make healthy cooking a pleasure rather than overcoming all resistance. If you have invested in one spiraleur to give you more opportunities while doing one Ganzes30 or you can get your money from an expensive juicer by making or adding freshly squeezed orange juice every morning Instant pot or deep fryer, because everyone is doing it, there are all sorts of ways to make healthy eating more interesting.

But then it's time to clean these machines and the pleasure goes straight to the kitchen window. I can not promise you any pleasure, but I can help you with advice, so cleaning is much less tedious.

If you jumped into the instant pot move, you may have already encountered this problem. As one of my podcast listeners said, "Did you handle the instant pot cleaning tips? The corners and columns of this thing stretch, and every time I take mine, it smells like the last thing I've done.

The removable inner pot, lid, inside and outside of the device are quite easy to clean. The inner compartment and lid are dishwasher safe, but you can also wash them by hand with a sponge and warm soapy water. It is important to wash the lid each time to remove food spills and oily cooking debris. The inside and outside of the machine can be cleaned with a damp cloth, a microfiber cloth or even paper towels. When it comes to those nooks and crannies, a scratchy scraper like a Dobie pad is a good choice, even if an old toothbrush works just as well or even better.

The real problem is the sealing ring. But do not worry, because there is a very easy way to keep it clean and odorless. The soft silicone ring between glass and lid prevents the escape of steam, which is important for cooking and safety, and is put into the dishwasher. You must wash the sealing ring after each use in the dishwasher. If you have a persistent odor, dip it in Dr. Bronner Pure Castile Liquid Soap, diluted in lukewarm water. A 10-minute bath is everything the ring needs; Dr. Bronner is an excellent odor eliminator and absolutely safe for dishwashers. It's also great if your food preparation containers smell like lentil curry last week!

2. How to clean an air fryer:

When it comes to cleaning, fryers are a smaller problem than instant tanks, but you should avoid some tools so as not to damage the pieces. In most models, the tray and basket are dishwasher safe, but if you need to wash them by hand, first fill the pan with hot water and some dish soap. Then place the basket in the pan and let it soak for 10 minutes. After soaking, you can wash the pan and basket with a non-abrasive sponge. Be sure to avoid scouring sponges, steel wool or steel brushes that can damage the finish. The exterior and the interior, including the heating coil, can be cleaned with a damp cloth.

3. To clean a juicer:

I have good news and bad news. The bad news: Your juicer should be cleaned after each use. Yes, every use. I know! But here is the reason: The residue that exists after preparing your favorite morning juice, is a breeding ground for bacteria. And if there are bacteria in the juicer, they end up in the next juice you make, and I do not think you want to pursue your coffee with an E. coli shake.

Cleaning a juicer can be a disadvantage because they tend to have several oddly shaped parts. But there is something to make your job easier: Treat all these parts in a bubble bath by filling the sink with hot water and a little detergent. Immerse all removable parts and soak for 5 to 10 minutes. Soaking releases the jammed food, saving you a lot of time. After soaking, wash everything with a sponge while immersed in soapy water; A toothbrush can help you penetrate the tightest corners and clean the lattices without any pulp residue. Once this is done, drain the water and rinse each part with running water.

Although it is not necessary after each use, it is recommended to periodically clean the outside of the juicer with a paper towel that is sprayed with a multipurpose cleaner to remove any spilled liquids. juice

4. How to clean a spiral:

Spiralizers are perfect for transforming vegetables into all kinds of funny shapes, such as: For example, luxurious carrot ribbons for salads and zoodles that mimic (more or less!) Spaghetti. But as one of my friends said very well, "OMG cleaning my spiralizer ... SCRATCH my fingerprints".

The trick in cleaning a spiralizer without knife cuts on the fingers is to put one side into the juicer's cleaning book and treat the parts in a soap bath to loosen the sticky leftover vegetables. , Then, with a dishwashing brush or even an old toothbrush, rub the pieces while they are submerged in water before rinsing thoroughly with warm water.

There is a rule to keep protein stirrers clean. A rule! But it is a very important rule, and here it is: It must (absolutely necessary!) Rinse as soon as possible after drinking your drink. That's because the protein powder becomes cement when too much time is left in the shaker cup. By rinsing the cup you prevent this unpleasant protein glue from destroying the shaker. If flushed, the protein shakers can be washed like any other glass of water with either hot water and soap or in the dishwasher.
