Brilio.net - The stove stand is an important part of the stove that is often considered trivial. Its function is not only as a support for cooking utensils, but also as a balancer of even heat when cooking.
The stove stand is designed to hold the weight of pots and pans steadily, ensuring that food can be cooked safely and efficiently. In addition, the design of the stand, which is usually in the form of a grid, allows for good airflow. This can help the flame remain optimal.
However, in the daily hustle and bustle, the cleanliness of the stove rack is often neglected. In fact, the stove rack is very susceptible to spills of food, oil, and other cooking residues.
If not cleaned regularly, the dirt can build up and form a thick crust that is difficult to remove. This crust not only makes the stove look dirty and unhygienic, but it can also interfere with the performance of the stove because it causes uneven flames, and even becomes a source of unpleasant odors in the kitchen.
To overcome this, you can clean the stovetop as much as possible. Usually some people will choose to soak it in soapy water for hours to soften the crust. Although effective, this method certainly takes more time.
To make it faster, you can use a trick from TikTok user @tantibebersih. Through one of the videos uploaded, she admitted to only using two kitchen ingredients to clean the thick crusty gas stove top. As reported by BrilioFood on Friday (6/12), the kitchen ingredients in question are baking soda and vinegar.

How to use it, simply remove the stove stand from its body. Then place it on the floor with a towel. Once done, pour vinegar over the stove stand. Make sure all parts are completely poured over. Then sprinkle with baking soda.

If so, let it sit for a while so that the cleaning agent can soak into the crust. After that, rinse again with vinegar. Then immediately scrub the crust on the stovetop using an old toothbrush.

When scrubbed, the crust will immediately lift. This is because baking soda and vinegar will immediately make the crust that was originally hard, softer. Therefore, the crust becomes easier to lift and clean.

Well, scrub and clean the gas stove stand until it is completely clean. Finally, rinse the stove stand under running water. That way, the stove stand will look shinier. Then if it has been rinsed, dry it first before it is ready to be reinstalled on the stove.
Having been viewed more than 290 thousand times, this video about the trick to clean the stovetop has immediately caught the attention of netizens. Many other TikTok users then commented directly on the upload. Some claimed that the trick was indeed quite effective in cleaning the stovetop with thick crust.
" Yes, this is the most effective... even though it's complicated, it makes the item last ," replied TikTok @kya.
" So can it be used on a pan that already has crust ?" said TikTok @ratnaisti72.
"Yes, you can," said TikTok @tantibebersih.
" I'll try later ," wrote the TikTok account @riesvaery.
