Brilio.net - Various kitchen utensils made of iron or aluminum have a reputation as sturdy and durable tools. From pots and pans to ladles and strainers, iron and aluminum materials are used because of their ability to withstand high heat and strong resistance to impact. This makes kitchen utensils made of these materials a favorite choice for many people.
However, behind the strength of iron and aluminum, kitchen utensils made from this material also have drawbacks. One of the main problems is its tendency to rust, especially iron. When iron furniture is exposed to water or moisture for a long period of time, the oxidation process occurs and causes it to rust.
This condition not only affects the appearance of the furniture, but can also reduce its performance and reduce its lifespan. If it is rusty, many people choose to just throw away kitchen furniture. In fact, if the quality is still good, this rust can be removed. A Facebook user Fitri Rahmawati once shared a trick to turn rusty kitchen furniture into shiny again.
Through one of the videos uploaded, she admitted that she wanted to clean a rusty steamer filter . Reported by BrilioFood from Fitri Rahmawati's Facebook on Tuesday (26/22), the cleaning materials needed to change the rusty filter are citric acid, vinegar, and dishwashing soap. Well, these ingredients will later be used separately so that the rust can be cleaned optimally.

How to use it, simply pour enough citric acid and vinegar onto the surface of the filter. After that, rinse with hot water and let it sit for a few minutes. At this stage, the filter actually looks cleaner. However, it still needs to be brushed for maximum results.

Before scrubbing, pour a little dish soap onto the surface of the strainer. Then rub it until all the rust is gone. It is better to scrub using a wire brush so that the remaining rust stains are easier to remove. After that, rinse thoroughly and this steamer strainer will be shiny again like new.
