Factors that cause oily kitchen towels.
Greasy kitchen towels can be caused by several factors, including:
1. Leftover food oil.
While cooking, oil droplets may be splashed on the kitchen surface or around the cooking area. If not cleaned immediately, these oil droplets can cause the kitchen cloth to become oily.
2. Improper storage of oil.
If the oil container leaks or is not closed tightly, the oil can spill and drip onto the kitchen surface, causing the kitchen cloth to become oily.
3. Use of oily cooking utensils.
Using oily cooking utensils, such as frying pans, can leave oil residue on kitchen surfaces.
4. Imperfection of ventilation.
Poor ventilation in the kitchen can cause oil residue to settle on various kitchen surfaces, including kitchen towels.
5. Certain cooking habits.
Some types of cooking or cooking methods may produce more steam and oil splashes, which can then stain kitchen towels with oil.
