Brilio.net - Jars are one of the important furniture in the house because they are often used as containers for various types of food, from spices, crackers, to snacks. Airtight jars make the contents last longer.
However, jars also have a drawback, namely that the inside often has an unpleasant rancid odor. This is usually caused by leftover food left inside. The longer the jar is closed, the stronger the rancid odor will be.
The rancid smell can actually disappear on its own if the jar is left open. However, this process takes quite a long time, especially if the rancid smell is very strong.
As a solution, some people deliberately burn newspapers in the jar. This method is considered effective in neutralizing the rancid smell inside. Unfortunately, this method risks exposing your hands to fire if not done carefully.
To get around this, you can imitate what TikTok user @umimaull did. In her video upload, she only used one kitchen spice to remove the rancid smell in the jar. Curious about how to do it?
As reported by BrilioFood from TikTok @umimaull on Monday (23/9), the kitchen spice used is salt. The method is to put 1 tablespoon of salt into a jar then close it tightly.

Shake the jar until the salt reaches all parts of the jar. Once it is evenly distributed, let the jar sit for 1-2 hours. This process aims to allow the salt to work optimally.

Reported from conehealth.com, the content in salt is believed to be able to kill bacteria so that it can help eliminate unpleasant odors. This is proven, after being left for 1-2 hours, the rancid smell in the jar disappeared not immediately.
Don't stop there, first throw away the salt in the jar. Once done, wash the jar using dish soap. Rub the entire surface of the jar using a sponge.
Wash the jar using Mama Lemon Lime. With lime extract can eliminate the rancid smell in the jar. To buy Mama Lemon Lime on e-commerce can check the recommendations below.

Finally, rinse the jar with running water. Rub the jar with your hands to make sure all parts are as clean as possible. Because it has been left with salt and washed with dish soap, the rancid smell in the jar is gone without a trace.
