Brilio.net - Plates can be used as containers for serving food. Dishes must be cleaned regularly to keep them hygienic and have a clean appearance. However, with use, over time the plates can get dirty even if they have been washed with soap .
This dirt arises because leftover food stains stick to it and then become crusty stains. These crust stains are often seen at the bottom of the plate. Plates that are covered in scale stains also tend to look dull and dirty. If it's like this, the crust will be difficult to clean even if you rub it with soap.
A number of people end up choosing to throw away crusty plates and replace them by buying new ones.
However, there are still other tricks to remove crust from plates, you know. This trick was demonstrated by a netizen via the YouTube account Queen Azzahra Family. He claimed to be able to remove crust on plates without needing to scrub them. He also only relies on simple ingredients, one of which comes from the kitchen.

After investigating, the kitchen ingredient used was dish washing soap. Apart from that, he also added citrus and hot water as a dish descaling mixture. The steps for cleaning it are also quite easy. First, prepare a basin as a container for soaking dishes.
If so, put the dishes to be washed. Then pour the citrus, dish soap and enough hot water into the basin.
"The purpose of using hot water is so that during the soaking process the crust will be removed more easily, my friends," he explained.

After all the ingredients are added, then soak the plate for a while. The purpose of soaking is so that the cleaning fluid is more absorbed and effective in removing stubborn limescale stains.
"We just leave it for a few hours. I soak it in the morning, then I just clean it, cook it, wash the clothes, dry it in the sun," he added.

Because it has been soaked for hours, the crust stains will fade by themselves without needing to be rubbed again. The crust stains on the bottom of the plate completely disappeared. Next, the YouTube user rinsed the plate 3 times to make it cleaner and rougher.

As a result, the appearance of the plates after being washed using citrus, dish soap and hot water looks white and shiny again. That way, the plate can be used again to serve food.
"It looks like new again, friends," he concluded.
How to care for plates so they don't crack easily.
So that the plates don't crack easily, you can follow the following maintenance tips.
1. Avoid drastic temperature changes.
Hot dishes should not be doused directly with cold water or placed on a cold surface such as granite or metal. This can cause drastic temperature changes and crack the plate.
2. Avoid collisions.
Keep plates from being knocked over when using or storing them. Avoid stacking dishes too high in cupboards or storage shelves.
3. Choose a safe storage place.
Dishes should be stored in a safe and stable place. Use suitable storage racks and ensure that no excessive pressure is applied to dishes at the edges.
4. Avoid washing in the dishwasher.
While dishwashers are very convenient, sometimes their wash cycles can cause pressure or temperature changes that are bad for dishes, especially if they are not designed for dishwashers. It is better to wash dishes manually by hand using warm water and mild soap.
5. Use mild dish soap.
Avoid using detergents that are too harsh or abrasive, as they can damage the protective layer on the dishes and make them susceptible to cracking.
6. Check the dishes periodically.
Periodically inspect the plate to ensure that no small cracks are starting to appear. If you find a crack, immediately stop using the plate because the crack can enlarge and make the situation worse.
7. Avoid plates that are too thin.
Plates that are too thin tend to be more susceptible to cracking. Choose a plate with adequate thickness to avoid this problem.
