Brilio.net - Ingredients that are being cooked on the stove can fall onto the stove and cause stubborn crust. This can happen especially when the stove burner is rarely cleaned. The reason is, many people don't have much time to cook, so the stove has to be left dirty after cooking.
There are many ways to clean scale stains on stove burners . For example, by scrubbing the stove with a citrus solution or citric acid. Citrons are known to have quite high acid levels, so they are able to eradicate stubborn stains. Apart from that, there are also those who choose to use special cleaning agents to clean the stove.
But if you want to use other ingredients, you can too. Just like what was done by an Instagram user @ussy_alifaa. After investigating, this netizen's method of getting rid of limescale on stove stoves is fairly simple, namely relying on only three kitchen ingredients .
First, place the stove burner inside the sink. Then, add the three main kitchen ingredients, namely baking soda, dishwashing soap, and vinegar evenly over the entire surface of the stove burner. Next, let it sit for a few moments so that the three ingredients can work to remove stubborn stains.
"Let it rest for 15-20 minutes," wrote the owner of the Instagram account @ussy_alifaa in his upload, quoted by BrilioFood on Monday (19/2).

After that, prepare a large pan filled with enough water. Heat it until it boils, then boil the stove. Yup, the way mothers get rid of limescale on the stove is by boiling because high temperature water is said to be effective in removing stains.
After boiling for a while, leave the stove in the pan until the water is no longer hot. Finally, just rub the stove burner with wire wool so that the remaining limescale stains can be completely removed. If so, immediately rinse the stove burner using clean water and dry it before using it again.

How about it? Isn't this a unique way for mothers to get rid of limescale on stove stoves? Taking a peek at @ussy_alifaa's Instagram upload which has been viewed 2 million times, quite a few netizens are enthusiastic about imitating or sharing other ways to clean crusty stove stoves.
"Even though using percarbonate it can shine again, you don't need to boil it, just douse it in hot water and it will fall off," wrote Instagram @ratnasari.trisna.
"If I put baking soda, dish soap and vinegar in boiling water, then put the crusty stuff in... wait a few minutes before scrubbing... It's really easy to peel it off," said Instagram @ayuyua69.
"My stove is 10 years old, thank God it's not crusty at all, in fact it still looks like new because every time you cook it you have to clean it... God willing, it will last," said Instagram @bella.susanti.3785.
