shock! Potatoes can actually do these things!

1) Shake out the dirt at the bottom of the thermos cup in 30 seconds

Cleaning a thermos cup with a narrow mouth and deep belly has always been a headache. Even with a special brush, it is difficult to clean the stubborn tea stains accumulated at the bottom of the cup. You may spend 3 minutes brushing a thermos cup and still feel annoyed. If you put 4-5 slices of potato with the skin into a thermos, tighten the cap, shake it up and down, and open it after 30 seconds, you will find that all the tea stains that have penetrated to the bottom of the thermos have been shaken out.

2) Give your sink a makeover

A morning grooming in the bathroom is refreshing. However, the stains formed by splashing toothpaste foam and bath liquid on the dressing mirror, washbasin and basin are far less pleasant to look at.

Now, while the potato skin is still fresh and moist, wipe it on the mirror and countertop. The water stains, detergent stains, etc. on the ceramic and glass surfaces will disappear in an instant. Compared to those expensive special cleaning agents, it is easier to achieve your dream goal by recycling potato peels.

3) Remove grease from the sink

Stainless steel sinks can easily appear foggy due to oil stains, which is out of proportion with the bright cabinets. Save the potato peels you peel when cooking. After washing the dishes, use the inside of the potato peels to wipe the sink. The final garbage will help you restore the sink to a shiny new look.

4) Cleaning Silverware

Clean your silverware gently. Although silverware is beautiful, it is not easy to clean. Boil a few slices of potato in soda water for a while, then use water and potato slices to scrub the silverware. It will be as shiny as before and gently without damaging your precious tableware in the slightest.

5) Eliminate scale without leaving any odor

If you use a kettle for a long time, white scale will accumulate on the bottom and walls of the kettle, affecting the quality of the boiled water. Put the potato peels you cut into the kettle and boil them for 1 hour. The scale in the kettle will be cleared out. Compared with using white vinegar to remove scale, this method will not damage the utensils and will not leave a vinegar smell that is difficult to wash off.

6) Leftovers keep bread delicious and soft

Even with a food storage container, it is difficult to keep bread fresh. If the lid is left open, it will easily become dry and hard; if the lid is closed, it will easily become moldy. If you are making shredded or sliced ​​potatoes, you might as well leave the two slices that are hardest to cut at the ends and put them at the bottom of the bread box. Then close the lid and the bread inside will not dry out or mold.

7) Emergency treatment for burns in the kitchen

Even if you are extremely careful when cooking in the kitchen, you will still get burned.

You can use local materials to complete the emergency treatment.

Potatoes have anti-inflammatory, detoxifying and analgesic effects, and are better at treating burns than traditional kitchen emergency burn treatment ingredients such as soy sauce and honey.
