In addition to being available in a variety of shapes and colors, silicone utensils are also safe enough to use for cooking.

Brilio.net - Cooking utensils have evolved from using traditional materials such as plastic, wood, and stainless steel to the latest innovation in the form of silicone utensils. Silicone material offers advantages in the form of attractive variations in shape and color, as well as safety of use because it is resistant to high temperatures up to 300C and is non-toxic, as reported by thespruce.com.

Although silicone utensils are known to be easy to clean, the washing process must be done with the right method for optimal results. Improper cleaning can result in the buildup of food and oil residue, which then creates a slippery surface and is less comfortable to use.

This was experienced by YouTube content creator @myversionofzen who shared his experience of facing the problem of silicone equipment such as brushes and spatulas that still felt slippery and sticky even after being washed.

Therefore, he deliberately decided to wash it again, but using a special trick. Namely, by soaking it in a special liquid.

The liquid consists of dish soap, baking soda to taste, and hot water. Put in all the silicone equipment to be cleaned.

"Soak and let it cool," he said as quoted by BrilioFood , Thursday (12/12).

Once the soaking water has cooled, immediately rinse each silicone equipment one by one. Make sure the entire surface is free from traces of soaking water.
