Brilio.net - One of the most frequently dirty parts of the stove is the burner. The burner functions as a stand for cooking utensils and is usually full of black crust. This crust generally comes from leftover food, oil, or cooked food ingredients. Because it is exposed to the stove fire continuously, the crust then turns black.
The condition of the black and crusty stove burner is certainly not pleasant to look at. Therefore, the stove burner must be cleaned regularly. Ideally, the stove burner needs to be cleaned every week to avoid the crust becoming stubborn and accumulating.
Unfortunately, many people still ignore the cleanliness of the stove burner. As a result, the crust on the burner will thicken and become difficult to clean. Even if brushed hard, the crust still sticks firmly.
To clean the stove burner that is like that, some people usually use a special technique. For example, by soaking the stove burner in water that has been mixed with soap. This soaking can indeed help soften the crust, making it easier to clean.
But please note that soaking takes a long time. Usually the stove must be soaked all day so that the crust can be soft. Of course, this can take more time just to clean the stove's crust.
In fact, stovetop crust can actually be cleaned in just 10 minutes. A TikTok user @ferriszachra once explained it further through one of the uploaded videos.
As reported by BrilioFood from TikTok @ferriszachra on Saturday (14/9), he admitted to using lime juice, baking soda, and dish soap. The method is to mix all the ingredients in a container. Then stir until it foams.

Before applying, first clean the dirt on the surface of the stove burner using used paper. Then apply the cleaning fluid to the surface of the stove burner. Then smooth it using a spoon or finger.

Once done, let it sit for just 10 minutes. The mixture of the three ingredients will immediately soften the crust quickly. After letting it sit, brush each crusty part using a wire brush. Because the crust is already soft, it will be easier to brush and clean.

After brushing, rinse the stove burner until it is completely clean. Then dry it with a cloth or kitchen tissue. Well, the stove burner that was originally full of crust becomes cleaner and shinier. The way to clean it is also very easy and fast. You can practice it using simple ingredients that are at home.
