As a tool that is often used to wipe hands, clean kitchen surfaces, and dry cooking utensils, kitchen napkins are very susceptible to stains and unpleasant odors. This is made worse if the napkins are not cared for properly. Dirty napkins that are not washed regularly can become a nest for bacteria and germs, which can affect the cleanliness of the kitchen.
Basically, dirty kitchen napkins can reduce the efficiency of the wipe's function. Stubborn stains that are difficult to remove and unpleasant odors can be a sign that the napkins need to be washed or even replaced. Using clean, fresh napkins not only makes kitchen work more enjoyable, but also helps ensure that the food being prepared remains hygienic while being safe for consumption.
If you are confused, you can copy the napkin washing trick shared by Instagram user @cleo0.204 in one of the uploaded videos. He admitted that he only used two kitchen ingredients to wash dirty and smelly napkins.
Reported by BrilioFood from Instagram @cleo0.204 on Monday (5/8), the kitchen ingredients in question are dishwashing soap and baking soda. So, these two ingredients will later be mixed to produce a powerful cleaner for removing stains. Apart from being clean, kitchen napkins also smell better, you know.
The final step, rinse the napkin under running water. After that, dry it in the sun until it is completely dry. That way, the dry napkin will look shinier, cleaner, and of course smell better. Dish soap and baking soda are an effective combination that can turn dirty and smelly kitchen napkins into cleaner ones. Dish soap is designed to remove oil and grease from dishes and utensils. This property also makes it effective in removing oil and dirt stains on kitchen napkins. On the other hand, baking soda is known for its ability to absorb and neutralize odors. When used on kitchen towels, baking soda can remove unpleasant odors that may be caused by bacteria or food residue. Therefore, the napkins smell better and are more comfortable to use.
