It probably surprises you, but rice can clean a variety of containers. Do you often find it difficult to remove all the dirt encrusted in your glass bottles or jars? It is true that some parts are not easily accessible. It takes more effort and time to achieve the desired cleanliness and shine. The task is over! Thanks to this simple trick, cleaning will be much more optimal. Your bottles will be free of any traces of embedded dirt.
Here’s how:
First, rinse the bottle to remove any visible dirt.
Then, using a funnel, pour the rice into the bottle. About 3 tablespoons of rice are needed per 0.7 liter bottle. Then add hot water. Fill it enough so that the rice is slightly under water. You can also add a few drops of dishwashing soap.
Close the bottle with the lid, then shake it vigorously. Until the traces of dirt come off perfectly.
Once clean, pour the contents into a strainer so that the rice does not end up in the drain.
Then rinse the bottle with a little more water to remove any remaining rice grains.
NB: This method also works with vases, gourds, coffee pots and teapots. As a bonus, because rice absorbs moisture, it can prevent rust from forming on metal parts.
