The high intensity of rice cooker use can make this device easily dirty and susceptible to the accumulation of food scraps, stains, and unpleasant odors. The dirt that sticks is usually the remains of rice left on the inside of the rice cooker. In addition, dust and water vapor residue can also make the heating element dirty.
Unfortunately, the heating element located at the bottom of the rice cooker tends to be often ignored and rarely cleaned. In fact, this part is susceptible to crust growth. This is because the stains that stick will be burned by the heating element when the rice cooker is used. Well, when burned, the stains will stick even more and turn into black crust.
If it has become crust, usually the stain will be difficult to clean. Therefore, many people then use various special ingredients to remove the crust stain. Some of them even use a mixture of baking soda, vinegar, salt, or dish soap.
But instead of having to mix the cleaning agent first, you can rely on one simple ingredient like the one used by the YouTube account owner yu sitie chanel. Through one of the videos uploaded, she admitted to only using toothpaste to clean the black crust on the rice cooker. Well, the toothpaste will make the crust soft in just 15 minutes.
