Brilio.net - Magic com is one of the kitchen appliances that is often used to cook rice every day. Over time, the inside can get dirty and crusty due to dried rice residue or spilled water that is left too long. If not cleaned immediately, this crust can interfere with the performance of the magic com and make the rice go stale faster.
Many people try to remove burnt crust with a wire sponge, but this method can damage the non-stick coating on the magic com pan. Some also choose to use citric acid, but this ingredient is quite dangerous for the skin if used without protection. As a safer alternative, there is an easy trick that only uses two simple kitchen ingredients to clean the crust on the magic com.
Benefits of toothpaste and kitchen vinegar.

One way to clean a burnt magic com is to use toothpaste and kitchen vinegar. These two ingredients were chosen for a reason. Toothpaste has a mild abrasive content that can help remove stubborn stains without damaging the surface of the pan. Meanwhile, kitchen vinegar is known as a natural cleaning agent that is effective in removing dirt and crust.
Some people may prefer to use soap to clean kitchen utensils. However, using soap on a magic com can leave a lingering odor when cooking rice. Therefore, the owner of the TikTok account @shobat_milenial shared an alternative way to clean a magic com with safer ingredients that do not leave a disturbing aroma.

Cleaning the magic com with this trick is quite easy. The first step, mix toothpaste and kitchen vinegar in the appropriate measurements without mixing it with water. Stir the mixture until evenly mixed to get maximum cleaning results.
Before applying this mixture, first wipe the outside of the magic com with a slightly damp microfiber cloth. Next, open the inside cover to make it easier to clean. After that, apply a mixture of toothpaste and kitchen vinegar to the area affected by burnt crust.

Use a cleaning brush to scrub the dirty parts until the crust is lifted. For hard-to-reach parts, you can use a cotton bud for maximum cleaning. When finished, clean with a damp cloth to remove any remaining cleaning agent, then dry using a dry cloth so that no moisture remains.
In this way, the burnt crust on the magic com can be easily removed without the need to use soap or risky chemicals. In addition to being more practical, this method also ensures that the magic com remains safe to use for cooking rice without leaving a disturbing soap smell. If you have a magic com that is starting to turn black or crusty, there's no harm in trying this trick to restore its cleanliness with simple kitchen ingredients.
