Brilio.net - A greasy stove can be an annoying problem in the kitchen. Apart from causing an unpleasant odor, sticky oil can also become a breeding ground for bacteria and become a source of food contamination. The main cause is the accumulation of oil and grease stains from the cooking process that is not cleaned thoroughly.
Therefore, it is important to clean the stove regularly to keep the kitchen clean and healthy. When cleaning a greasy stove, some people usually use a cloth. So, the surface of the stove will be rubbed or wiped with a cloth until it is clean. This can indeed make the stove shine, but the effect is that the rag actually becomes slippery and smelly.
So, this stove cloth also needs to be washed regularly so that it can be used continuously. But to remove stubborn oil stains on fabric, you need special tricks. One way is to soak a stove cloth in water mixed with citrus and detergent.
Basically, citrus and detergent can really help remove stubborn stains. However, apart from these two ingredients, there are other cleaners that are no less effective in removing oil stains on stove tops. This cleaning material was used by the netizen who owns the Instagram account @safaralles.

Through one of the uploaded videos, the account owner admitted that he only used bar soap to wash the stove cloth. Reported by BrilioFood on Sunday (4/5), this bar soap is as effective as citrus and detergent in removing stubborn grease stains.
Even bar soap can make a stovetop shine quickly without soaking it first. How to use it is quite easy. First, rinse the dirty cloth with water. Then immediately rub the surface evenly with bar soap. Do this process until the stain is completely gone.

If it has been rubbed, I immediately check the compost wipe with my hand. While checking, rinse with clean water. Then, if you feel the oil stain has faded, rinse again until it is completely clean of soap and dirt.
So, this stove cloth that has been washed can be dried directly in the sun. When it is dry, this stove cloth will look shiny and rough again. You can use this rag to clean the stove surface as usual.
