How to avoid bacteria in stainless steel kitchen utensils?
It is very simple to keep the stainless steel kitchen utensils dry and clean. Experts recommend that you can set up a dish rack next to the sink. After the cleaning is completed, the dishes are placed vertically and the bowl is buckled on the shelf, so that the dishes can be dried naturally, which is both trouble-free and sanitary.
1. Chopsticks and knife holders should be breathable
The contact between the chopsticks and the oral cavity is the most direct and frequent. When storing, keep the ventilation and dryness. Some people wash the chopsticks and put them in the cabinet, or put them in the airtight plastic chopsticks. These are not recommended. It is best to choose a chopstick tube made of stainless steel wire that is well ventilated and nail it to the wall or in a ventilated place so that the water can be drained quickly. Some people are used to putting a clean cloth on the chopsticks to prevent dust. In fact, just rinse it with water before use, and it will prevent the moisture from spreading. In addition, it is not advisable to place the kitchen knife in a non-ventilated drawer and a knife holder. Also, a knife holder with good air permeability should be selected.
2. Hang up the stainless steel kitchen utensils
Long handle spoons, colanders, spatulas, etc. are all good helpers when cooking soup, but many people are used to putting these utensils in drawers, or put them in pots and frying spoons, and put them on the lid, which is not conducive to Keep dry.
The cutting board is easy to absorb water, and the surface is often scratched and slit, and the residue of fresh food is often hidden. If the cleaning is not thorough and improperly stored, the residue of the food will cause the bacteria to multiply and even form mold spots on the surface of the cutting board. The contamination of the food can be imagined.
To solve these problems, you might want to make a small revolution in the kitchen: install a solid crossbar between the wall cabinet and the cabinet, or a convenient place on the wall, and attach a hook to the crossbar. Hang the cleaned spatula, colander, egg beater, washing basket, etc., hang the rag, dish cloth and towel on the far end of the appliance, and install a more on the other end of the crossbar. The sturdy hooks hang the cutting board so that it is dry. In this way, the kitchen can be kept clean and tidy, and the various utensils are also very easy to pick up. It should be noted that the items hanging and placed outside the cabinet will also be contaminated with dust when naturally dried, and should be carefully washed before use.
