In the process of using stainless steel kitchen utensils, there are actually some taboos. Let me show you the following:

Stainless steel is made of iron, chromium, nickel alloy, and then added with trace elements such as molybdenum, titanium, cobalt and manganese. Its metal properties are good, and the finished vessels are beautiful and durable. However, if stainless steel kitchen utensils are used improperly, heavy metal elements may slowly "accumulate" in the human body, which is harmful to health.

1. Avoid storing sour foods

Stainless steel cutlery should not contain salt, soy sauce, vegetable soup, etc., and should not contain acidic juice. Because the electrolyte in these foods can be complicated with the "electrochemical reaction" of the metal elements in the tableware, the excess of the elements is explained.

2. Avoid washing with strong alkali and strong oxidizing agent

Such as alkaline water, soda and bleaching powder. These strong electrolytes also "electrochemically react" with certain components of the tableware, eroding the stainless steel tableware to dissolve harmful elements.

3. Avoid boiled Chinese herbal medicine

Because of the complex composition of Chinese herbal medicines, most of them contain a variety of alkaloids and organic acids. When heated, it is easy to chemically react with certain components in stainless steel, which reduces the efficacy.

4. Should not be burned

Because stainless steel has lower thermal conductivity than iron and aluminum products, the heat conduction is slower, and the air burning will cause the chrome plating on the surface of the cookware to age and fall off.

5. Inferior quality do not buy

Because such stainless steel tableware is inferior in raw materials and rough in production, it may contain a variety of heavy metal elements that are harmful to human health, especially lead, aluminum, mercury and cadmium.

Many people have stainless steel cutlery at home because it is much stronger than ceramic tableware. However, after using it for a long time, it will lose the beautiful luster at the beginning. It is a pity to throw it away. If you continue to use it, what should you do?

First of all, teach you four mouth-to-mouth numbers: 1, 2, 3, 10!

Tools: detergent, expired or leftover ketchup, a glass of water, an empty cup, a cap, a small brush

Mouth "1"

Dip a 1 bottle of detergent, then pour the detergent in the bottle into the empty cup.

Mouth "2"

Pour 2 caps of ketchup, then pour the ketchup from the cap into a cup with detergent.

Mouth "3"

Immediately after pouring the water from the 3 caps into the cup.

Mouth "4"

Stir the metered detergent in the cup evenly, spread it on the tableware, then brush it with a small brush and soak for 10 minutes.

Clean water

The so-called mouth number: 1, 2, 3, is to take 1 bottle of detergent, 2 caps of tomato sauce, 3 caps of water and put them together to make a special detergent; 10 is to soak the stainless steel pot with detergent The gloss is ten minutes, and finally rinsed with water to become bright as new!

Reason: The acetic acid component in the tomato sauce reacts with the metal to make the stainless steel pot bright and new. This method is also suitable for very dirty and dark kitchen utensils.
