This part of the rice cooker is never wiped, no wonder it gets harder and harder to use

What food do we humans need most in a day? Answer: staple food.

Yes, in our three meals a day, staple food provides half of our energy, which shows that staple food is really important. Our most common staple food is none other than white rice. If a bowl of fragrant white rice is steamed well, even with nothing but the rice itself, the whole house fills with its aroma.

When cooking rice, we generally need to use a rice cooker. With the development of the times, rice cookers can now not only steam rice, but also make soup or stew dishes - there is so much they can do! As we use the rice cooker more and more, the more we feel that the rice cooker is getting harder and harder, and it always seems not as good to use as when we first bought it. Why is that?

Let Huahua tell everyone: it turns out this is because when we usually clean the rice cooker after use, we only clean the inner pot, that is, the part where we cook rice, but overlook the bottom of the inner pot, that is, the base of the rice cooker.

Many people often do not dare to wash the base of the rice cooker, because they think that if the base gets wet, there may be a risk of leakage or electric shock, and it is unsafe. Huahua is very glad that everyone can be so thoughtful, but Huahua still wants to tell everyone that in fact, after we clean the bottom of the inner pot each time, wipe it dry with a dry cloth, and then let the inner pot air-dry, there will be no leakage!

Some people may also ask, if I am usually lazy, can I just not clean the base of the inner pot? In fact, many people do not know that after a rice cooker has been used for a long time, some dirt will appear at the bottom, and this dirt will affect the rice cooker's conductivity. This is why everyone feels that the rice cooker becomes less good to use over time!

If the dirt at the bottom of the rice cooker is not cleaned in time, over time it will not only affect our rice-steaming speed, but also waste more electricity, which is really not worth it. As for how to clean the rice cooker, Huahua still has some skills!

We can mix baijiu and white vinegar in a 1:1 ratio, dip a cloth in it to wipe the bottom of the rice cooker, and it is best if the cloth is wrung out a little, then just wipe slowly. What everyone needs to note is that when cleaning the base, it is best not to use clean water, because using clean water may cause the bottom circuit board to short-circuit and corrode the parts. Using white vinegar and baijiu can, first, soften the dirt at the bottom, and second, because they evaporate relatively quickly, it dries right after wiping, so there is nothing to worry about.

Doing this will make your rice cooker last longer, and also save more electricity and be easier to use. Does everyone know the little tip Huahua shared today? Hurry home and try it!
