Cooking rice using a rice cooker is really practical.

Brilio.net - Rice cookers are an electronic appliance that is used almost every day. Not without reason, cooking rice using a rice cooker is indeed practical. Just add the rice and pour water into the rice cooker which is plugged into electric power then press the "cook" button.

However, because it is frequently used, the rice cooker becomes dirty. Moreover, the heating element at the base turns black or burnt. Even though it doesn't interfere with the cooking process, its appearance is less pleasing to look at. So a number of people use various methods to clean burnt stains on the bottom of the rice cooker .

To clean it, you can rub the bottom of the rice cooker with toothpaste. Reporting from thespruce.com, the abrasive properties of toothpaste can remove stubborn stains, including at the bottom of the rice cooker. After it fades, just wipe the base of the rice cooker with a wet tissue.

However, if you don't want your stock of toothpaste to run out, you can copy the method used by netizens with the TikTok account name @sabakimia. At the beginning of the video, he shows the appearance of the bottom of his rice cooker which is covered in burnt spots.

This method of cleaning burnt stains on the bottom of a rice cooker is quite practical. Initially, mix two kitchen ingredients, namely baking soda and vinegar. Stir until these two ingredients are completely mixed.

If so, pour the cleaning solution into the bottom of the rice cooker. Smooth and scrub with a dishwashing sponge. Don't use a wire sponge or sandpaper, because this will damage the hot plate at the bottom of the rice cooker.

"Scrub until the stain disappears," said the owner of the video.
